In this episode, we talk about the future of the office market in New York City, now that the summer is unofficially over. Though commercial office buildings were given the green light to open back up in June, many workers have continued to work remotely.

In recent weeks, office landlords have been encouraging employers to bring their staff back, saying the future of the city's economy depends on it. In the last week, both JPMorgan and Goldman Sachs have indicated they are sending workers back to their desks.

"A 1% change in JP Morgan's occupancy means a lot more than 50 startups. The startups produce a lot of innovation ...

"The focus on Facebook and Google, it's all kind of artificial, because they are not the ones that drive office demand in cities like New York."
