Manhattan residential real estate is still steady or up. Rental prices (apartments etc) there are very up. Go figure. Some want to live in shtsville or near their job at JP Morgan.
So libs messed the bed where they lived so rather than “change the sheets” they just move on to a new place and when that bed gets too messy, they just move again.
You know it is bad when even posters on DU are questioning why a rapist on lifetime parole gets released with no bail in NYC after he sucker punches someone and puts him in a hospital in a coma
Wait...what?😮
Democrats ( and a bunch of rinos) are just flat out communists
and everything everywhere communists touches turns to crap.
Nothing else.
DemocRATs goal? -——> F’k America!

Sort of like the “housing bubble” when home value dropped leaving the home owner owing more than the home was worth.
It is just a financial disaster waiting to happen.
Don’t know. Just saw it in relation to this story. This story is so outrageous it is hard for me to see how anyone can justify it
It can’t be justified.
Which is why Deep State has to steal elections.
Citizens of major metros: Want your cities back? See my tagline.
The meta data are for sale from all the carriers and Wi-Fi providers. Does NOT include name/address/phone number without a warrant.
Also, how do you think Apple and Google Maps and Waze get traffic data real time? They track the movement of mobile endpoints as they hit different towers and Hotspots.
Same for credit card usage.
Sorry, privacy is an illusion nowadays.
Go into any major first world Asian city such as Singapore (Orchard Road) or Tokyo (Ginza) or even a gritty industrial city such as Osaka (Umeda) and their downtown areas are nice, vibrant, clean and safe.
Left GPS off that list.
If you use a navigation app, your GPS coordinates are available to big data.
Can Baltimore and Minneapolis be far behind? And Seattle is the new San Fran. Shitsville is right, and no way back out.
How's Cleveland's downtown woes affected business at the R&RHOF? (I went there in 1999 when it was fairly new and found it dynamic.)

In the case of NYC, the government controls housing supply, and thus prices, through “rent stabilization” (price controls).
About 40% of the housing stock in Manhattan is under “rent stabilization”.
And that’s putting it mildly
These landlords got burned by Democrat politicians denying them the ability to evict tenants for non-payment under the guise of COVID-1984 emergency legislation so the landlords took hundreds of thousands of units off the market.
It's going to take decades to sort it out. In the meantime, the rents on the remaining units will skyrocket to pay back the landlords and until the laws are rewritten in stone that such emergency legislation never happens again.
