Though I’ve searched the web, I don’t get a sense that we really undertsand how many daytime professional employees are actually coming to offices M-F downtown. We know that the state moved the DMV to Rocky Mount, and I think that some other jobs have moved to other parts of the city, but I don’t get the sense that there are as many daily commuters in downtown on average per day. Everyone that I know who offices downtown spends at least some days at home. Also, Citrix is gone but Pendo is here…but what’s the +/- of the “swap”? The jobs coming to downtown seem to be heavily leaning toward hospitality, but who are they hosting during the daytime if workers aren’t filling the seats? Also, I suspect that many of the hospitality jobs are evening/night oriented.
