‘To replace department stores, mall owners considered schools, medical offices and senior living. With the current pandemic, industrial is the only thing left now.’

YEPPERS

The only thing left worth investing in is residential.
Even then you must watch out for RENT CONTROLS and other Marxist ideas like rezoning.

>>Early in a new trend?

I could definitely see this as a trend. Rather than one big headquarters have 15-20 smaller neighborhood offices around a city available for employees to use when they need to get out of the house, have client meetings, etc.. Although I love working from home it would be nice to have somewhere to go a day or two a week to get out of the house.
