Ok ok were recording the interview video game music pastas is the shirt ok all good. Well thats the problem is that video game music is still ridiculed a bit. You start in the video games final fantasy one and final fantasy 6 right. The human right as you can see here for yourself im the vampire on the upper right one of my 1st jobs in 1907 i was maybe 1000. And the speech when i played the game i play a sequence 203040 times i hear the music 30 or 40 times so gamers are already well acquainted with the musical sell when they come to the concert another concept. I remember when we went to london we got tough seat and the guy was just like looking around his just like what is this a concert for him like whats going on are just like its for video game its for foul fantasy and he was just like its already its its a concert thats dedicated video game music just like yeah whoa he was just so confused and its so if were talking about video game music then we need to talk about where it was b
And i want to tell you that what were seeing right now is not a cycle change. Its a structural change, and i am sure you are aware and seen the retailers and the retailers are shrinking the footprint and it is not the Large Department stores but even tenants that used to be 5,000 feet are shrinking to 1,000 feet and trying to deal with how to market the goods online and cross market both aspects. It has had a very structural change and quite frankly t vacancy rate at union square is the lowest that i have seen in 25 excuse me t highest in 25 years of business in union square.

They are just not there. We have been marketing 146 geary for four years and talking to tenants initially to take the entire building because that works the best fo
From 220 post. The likelihood that a Retail Business would want a stand alone third Floor Office Space that is accessible from an alley that provides minimal foot traffic, marginal street visibility and has some Security Issues is in our opinion simply less than minuscule. On the overhead, i want to post one more image which is looking at the alley from grant street and if you see the orange box, that is where the third floor business is. Pretty tough to see. Pretty unvisible. So with all that said, nothing prevents the third floor and the upper floors being turned back into retail if at some future point that becomes viable. Project does not include any physical changes that would preclude that, so i am going to let the project sponsor speak about the actual efforts to lease this building, but before i go, in your packet, you have support letters that collectively include 41 signatures in support of the project including a leter from members of the Street Building at 210 post which in
