Nah, once BlackRock and the CCP buy it all up for pennies on the dollar they will start enforcing the law again.

That is exactly what I've been thinking all along. Why else would you trash such a high dollar real estate city that brings in so much tourism and commerce?

So you and your donors can get prime real estate for nothing. And when that happens you watch this vagrancy and crime epidemic get a kick in the groin.

Is it still prime real estate? Will it be prime real estate?

If there’s a perception the subways aren’t safe, and people stop riding, can they ever be safe again? Same for the streets.

If enough rich people leave, are they coming back? Will others take their place?

My old boss lived in Manhattan, spent a fortune on food and wine. Spends most of his time in Florida because of the taxes. He’s not coming back.

New York City's high dollar real estate isn't due to return on investment, it's about global money laundering. "Overseas" korporations buy a building and then take loans against it. Rinse and repeat.

They don't want occupants, they just need a financial vehicle to move money against.
