When Elon Musk took over Twitter in 2022, it marked a new era for the struggling San Francisco company.
Twitter, now known as X, is expected to close its San Francisco headquarters this month, leaving behind the Mid-Market neighborhood it has called home since 2012. The company is reportedly moving its headquarters to Austin, Texas, but plans to relocate its San Francisco employees to San José and Palo Alto, ...
... another blow to a city...buffeted by high-profile business departures and once held up Twitter as a key part of its revival. Downtown San Francisco's vacancy rates have ballooned...
Confronted with a falloff in foot traffic, major retailers such as Nordstrom and Anthropologie also shut their stores amid heightened concerns about crime, theft, vandalism, drug use and homelessness.
X is the second-largest tenant in the Mid-Market neighborhood, leasing 457,793 square feet, according to CoStar, which tracks real estate trends. Vacancy rates in Mid-Market are at their highest in decades at 62%, according to CBRE.

another blow to a city...
And why is that??? I dunno, maybe the murders, crap, pee, druggies, robberies, etc..do we feel woke yet??
Wags!!
San Fransicko deserves every bad thing that can possibly happen to it.
They are fortunate they haven't yet been buried under fire and brimstone.
What we are seeing is the result of Democrat policies in the work for decades. To be honest I no longer believe the voters in San Francisco (or California as a whole) have been voting for Democrats. I think it is all a lie. I think they have been cheating every since they gained complete control over most of the institutions in the state. California is a one party state with a lap dog media.
“A stab in the back” is the perfect description of what Democrats have done to the people of California.
The Chinese need to organize and get behind a candidate and clean up S.F.
What company would want to stay in Scat Francisco the way it is now?
Reap what you sow!
Fewer people wearing flowers in their hair.
Quite honestly, Austin doesn’t merit X. Some other place in Texas should be awarded X.
What irritates me is he’s moving it to frickin Austin. Austin is the hairy cancerous wart on the butt of Texas.
True, make like a living hell for any company and then wonder why they leave.
Just saying kalifornia is not enough, you played those cards and placed your bets. You have been called and you got nothing
But of course it is musk’s fault
They will find a judge that says they can’t move, have to hire everyone back, and change name back to twitter
I mean this in all seriousness musk needs to watch his back
FOR CHRISSAKES THE CITY HAD TO ISSUE A POOP MAP THAT ENDED UP BEING JUST ONE BROWN BLOB THAT COVERED THE ENTIRE CITY. THE ENTIRE CITY IS GOING BANKRUPT BECAUSE NO BUSINESS WANTS THEIR PROPERTY STOLEN OR VANDALIZED OR THEIR EMPLOYEES RAPED, ASSAULTED OR MURDERED.
There is not ONE city in America under dem controlthat isn’t a 💩hole.
They intentionally destroy EVERYTHING they touch. Funny how NO ONE is mad at the people who allowed and encouraged this to happen.
Screw San Fagcisco Politicians and Bureaucrats good and hard in the Rear the way they deserve it.
I had a good time in San Francisco when I attended a conference way back when.
But now, the entrance to the posh hotel I stayed in on Nob Hill is reputedly littered with crap!
No thanks to going back there! Yuk and phooey!

Who stabbed who in the back? They created an unsafe work environment themselves first.
MANA
Make Austin Normal Again.
There are a lot of ghost towns in the west.
Frisco’s problems are self-infflicted. They decided stab business owners and workers in the back by favoring criminals,homeless and welfare artists. Of course, being leftists, they are utterly incompetent and incapable of seeing their own responsibilities. It’s always some else who caused it.
