Manage episode 479905280 series 2792715
ANOTHER ONE BITES THE DUST: Saks Fifth Avenue joins the parade of retailers fleeing San Francisco's Union Square. The luxury store—which already required APPOINTMENTS just to shop—is shutting down in a city where pooping on elevators and smash-and-grab robberies have become the norm. From Bloomingdale's to Nordstrom to Macy's, the $500 jeans crowd is packing up while city officials spin this retail exodus as merely "twists and turns" in their master plan. Is San Francisco's commercial real estate finally hitting rock bottom, or is this just the beginning of the end? And will AI magically save a downtown where knife-wielding addicts are given a free pass? Subscribe now for the unfiltered truth about how government policies are destroying once-thriving urban centers, one poop emoji at a time.
