Retailers, local and big box and just about everybody and nobody could make it work. Even using the global reach of our company, we couldnt make it happen. Nowhere in this country is there a shopping sent we are as many floors as westfield San Francisco center. Not in chicago, not in new york. The retail is why they succeed which is why the body amended the planning code to eliminate the need for a cup for the seventh and eighth floors and above. So we believe this investment is good for San Francisco center and mixed use buildings are inherently complementary with the office use supporting the retail and retail an amenity for the office.

He was just eight months into his marriage to his third wife melania and telling billy bush and others how he tried to seduce a married woman. And tonight, inside trump tower, the republican president ial candidate posted this message. Anyone who knows me knows these words don am. I said it. I was wrong. And i apologize. I pledge to be a better man tomorrow. And will never ever let you down. Lets be honest. We are living in the real world.
