SHARE: Earlier this week, Democratic mayoral candidate Andrew Yang pitched a new idea for reviving tourism in New York City: a casino on Governor’s Island. “That casino would generate so much money it would be bananas,” Yang said in a radio interview. “If the city could get that in place and harness some of that – that would be one of the engines of recovery.” Days later, news broke that casino and real estate developers are seeking to bring a new casino to Manhattan, hoping to capitalize on the density of the city and in a real estate market depressed by the coronavirus pandemic. With many corporate employees performing their work remotely, the once-lucrative commercial real estate market has been in freefall.
