Mark Simone...an excellent NYC talk show host...often mentions figures that he sees regarding people returning to their Manhattan offices after the end of the Wuhan Flu panic. I can't recall the exact figures he gave but it was somewhere around two-thirds.

So that means that around one third of people who commuted to Manhattan from the suburbs before the panic haven't returned.

Absolutely amazing.

I live within 100 yards of a commuter rail station that goes into downtown Boston. Before the panic the station's huge parking lot was full on weekdays. These days it's about half full.

I listen to his program sometimes.

“Excellent” is quite a stretch.

Many financial and law firms including the one I work for require in officer 3 out of 5 days a week. It’s not just the 100% WFH who are impacting the numbers. Interestingly enough the PATH and the MTA 4/5 are very crowded with only Fridays seeing a noticeable drop off.
