From TFA:<p><i>&quot;The property, once a premier address in the city, was afflicted with &#x27;vagrants sleeping in hallways of vacant office floors.&#x27; They were &#x27;starting fires in stairwells, smoking fentanyl and defecating in common areas,&#x27; according to papers the company filed in a lease-termination lawsuit.&quot;</i><p>Where is building security in all of this? Card keys, visitor check-in, all the stuff that I thought was standard-issue these days? If entire floors are vacant, why do the elevators open on those floors? Stairwell doors should already be card-keyed; it&#x27;s been years since I&#x27;ve been in a building that doesn&#x27;t do that. Other than sheer neglect (and that is certainly a a reasonable hypothesis), I am at a loss as to how this would continue for long.

&quot;He expressed a willingness to provide city permits and other nonfinancial support for the construction of a bridge from the building to a parking garage across the street. This would enable office workers to get into the building without having to go out in the street.&quot;<p>Great solve, guys. Would it not be cheaper to just station an officer on that block?

&quot;Big Pink&quot; has also been home to New Relic&#x27;s Portland office for the last decade or so, though I gather they&#x27;ve been switching to remote more and more. But articles like this one make me laugh, my office is about a mile away, and while the city took a beating during the pandemic, I am skeptical it&#x27;s much different than most other major metros - but the conservative press love to trash Portland.

If rents for commercial spaces don&#x27;t reduce I welcome more of these fire sales. Portland is still great, but the future of small businesses and the tech scene is abysmal.

A lot of words to bury this being the result of &quot;the state’s botched experiment with drug decriminalization&quot;
