I’m as big a work from home advocate as you’ll meet but Facebook nabbing 2.2 million sq ft of office space in the old post office in NYC seems exactly the right bet.

Tens of billions in public funding for the building/mall but looks like no giveaways to the company. What was the name of that governor who wanted to subsidize the world's richest man again? https://t.co/Duevsx7qHy

For those of us looking for them, strikes me as a very positive indicator for the post-pandemic revival of cities. As soon as we feel safe, we are going to want to be together again. https://t.co/8RPb8ifGUR

Facebook leases 730k sq. ft. old midtown post office, mid pandemic. Weird. Ok...
— Andrew Oddo (@A0ddo) August 4, 2020
But w total of 2.2 million sq. ft. in city, 50% permanent wfh, they have 1k+ sq ft per employee. Plenty of room to social distance, and prep for massive NYC growth after ? https://t.co/SdONRHnMJR
