There’s also a possibility that the economy grows indefinitely, but remote work overtakes hour-plus commutes to city centers as the preferred working arrangement for startups.
- ghaff 7y agoOTOH, you also have at least somewhat of a trend of those young urban professionals wanting to live near those city centers rather than commuting out from the suburbs. And those that do end up living in the city probably don't have nicely appointed offices in their apartments. People's preferences vary of course but I imagine that, under those circumstances, a lot of those remote workers would like an office they could go into--at least some of the time.

- orky56 7y agoThis is part of WeWork's expansion plan. People aren't going to switch fo full remote work overnight. As companies sprawl from the top 100 cities to the top 500, WeWork's additional locations will address this so that employee who commutes an hour can now just walk/drive 15 min to their nearest WeWork.
