From what I saw two weeks ago, I also predict Macys, Bloomingdales, and Target are next. And most likely the whole Westfield mall and the Metreon. I was struck by the emptiness of all of them. In some case also the sparsity of merchandise.
The collapse of retail and restaurants in the area is not good news for convention business in Moscone center either.
Then China swoops in and buys it all up for pennies on the dollar.
Anyone would have to have rocks in their head to want to hold a convention in SF these days. This didn’t have to happen, it’s totally predictable what happens when you stop protecting your stores from shoplifting and they tried to just ignore that. There’s a price to pay for their virtue signaling wokeism and everyone, including the employees who will no longer have jobs have to pay it.
Thanks for nothing Gap inc. You’ve only made the problem worse.
