Commercial Real Estate Collapse – Midtown Manhattan

Posted on February 18th, 2010 by admin

From the October 6, 2009 PBS “News Hour.”

One sees this every day. Storefronts on Park Avenue South where overpriced restaurants sat two years ago are empty with “For Rent” signs, something one never saw in such neighborhoods. Traditionally in NYC, property changes hands in private deals, never through the posting of rent signs. With 1% down payments, commercial real estate makes the subprime meltdown look outright responsible.
