Stevie B is reporting Deloitte is moving out in 2025 and relocating to 23Springs in Uptown. That's a huge loss for Downtown/Arts District.
Put a fork in DTD. Once the big law firms start bailing, even the Arts District will be dead.

Re: Northpark Center
I don't understand La Duni - that place was rocking and fit nicely into NP's target market. I get COVID, but you would think they could have worked something out. How long is it going to sit vacant?
IMO Kona Grill doesn't fit the profile...maybe 10 years go, but not in 2023.
