  • Hello, everyone.

  • You're listening to After Hours.

  • I'm Felix.

  • I'm Mihir.

  • And I'm Charlotte.

  • Charlotte Howard's back.

  • Yeah.

  • Welcome back, Charlotte.

  • Thank you.

  • It's good to be back.

  • It's wonderful to have you.

  • I heard you moved to new offices with the Economist.

  • Yeah, we just moved to 54th and third.

  • And everyone talks about the death of Midtown, in particular Midtown East.

  • But I have to say that I have been struck by the opportunities created by some businesses dying and some new businesses coming in.

  • So right nearby,

  • we have this food court that opened in the bottom of the Citigroup building that should,

  • for all intents and purposes, really be a wasteland.

  • And instead, it's incredibly dynamic and has delicious new restaurants and is always full.

  • And there's a black seed bagel that's opening across the street.
