Comments on: Land Board Reveals Vacancy Rates https://boiseguardian.com/2011/08/25/land-board-reveals-vacancy-rates/ A different slant on the news. Wed, 31 Aug 2011 13:10:30 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.9.4 By: Justin https://boiseguardian.com/2011/08/25/land-board-reveals-vacancy-rates/#comment-24681 Wed, 31 Aug 2011 13:10:30 +0000 https://boiseguardian.com/?p=6924#comment-24681 We have tried for over 3 years to negotiate a lower rate on the Sherm Perry space. The latest round ended with “we want a restaurant” in this space. Granted we did not need the whole space, only a third but they could have had some money coming in as we did not require much build out. In fact, a little over a year ago a company that works with us needed space and we could have occupied half the Sherm Perry space. Unfortunate as we are a design company (with plans for classes and retail) which would have been great fit there. I think they are not only faced with rate issues (as with ALL of Downtown) but also discriminating on the type of occupant the want. Time for DT Boise to wake up before they start loosing more business to lower lease rates on the outskirts and retrain others from entering.

The reality is they mayors/county commissioners in the valley continue to sell the notion we can spend our way into prosperity by taxing property owners already hanging by a thread financially.

What does that say about the privately owned buildings in Boise? Yet the CCDC and that idiot mayor are still touting the “vibrancy” of downtown!
I have to wonderv what city they are talking about!

At least the business leasing the State building might operate it efficiently.
