My first thought at the beginning of the pandemic was, what will happen with all the now no longer ever needed downtown office spaces? What will happen to those leases and property owners?

Never did I think, nothing will happen, they won’t let that entire industry fail even if it’s no longer necessary

What they should do is renovate them and turn them into rentals for housing. Pretty much everywhere has a housing shortage nowadays causing rents to skyrocket. You could easily add hundreds, if not thousands, of new units this way.
