Would be nice if the Trump administration would communicate their strategy to the American people rather than just taking random actions - like offering hundreds of buildings for sale. -Is the goal to move more workers to remote and save the building costs? -Is the goal to move workers to more cost effective spaces and, if so, have those properties been identified or do they need to be built -Are we looking to move out of expensive jurisdictions to lower cost jurisdictions to save taxpayer $$s I'm sure the random, chaotic nature of these Trump/DOGE actions is part of a strategy but they are dealing with people's lives We owe it to our friends, neighbors and family members that work for the government to communicate what the plans are Saving money is great - but these are our countrymen - and these savings are not supposed to just be for now but for the long-term. There is no need for this chaos

https://www.cbsnews.com/baltimore/news/maryland-washington-dc-fbi-headquarters-greenbelt-president-trump/ Stories like this give me less hope of NASA coming to Ohio. Why does the FBI building need to be in DC?? Maybe the answer is proximity to the CIA and Homeland Security but that seems like an old way of thinking to me. The Pandemic proved we have the technology to connect from anywhere. Why not put the FBI headquarters in the middle of the country - like Kansas City or St. Louis. I'm sure KC would cost less than DC. I'm sure St. Louis could really use the boost. Anyway, it is this sort of parochial thinking that will prevent a worthwhile move of departments like NASA outside of locations like Ohio

I, like many on this thread, do not trust the Trump Administration but I LOVE these potential moves. As said by many already, moving some Federal government administration functions outside of DC makes perfect sense for a number of reasons: -National Security. Having all functions in one location is a risk to our government functioning in the event of a war/attack. Covid provided we have the technology to various locations -Cost. DC is expensive and we can save the taxpayers' $$$ by moving certain functions to lower cost locales -Economics. The middle class has been decimated in certain parts of the country because politicians enacted policies that allowed US jobs to be exported abroad. These are well-paying jobs that could benefit those areas that have lost some of those manufacturing jobs that have been exported. Sure, some manufacturing may come back - but not all of it. More of this please.

Not a Trump fan but love this recommendation. Save the taxpayers $$$ and move government operations to non-DC locations throughout the country. https://www.daytondailynews.com/local/husted-turner-letter-move-nasa-hq-to-ohio/MFYH6GMFJBH5XNE2YC5ATE3F44/

Any chance a new Courthouse Tower?

McDonnell-Douglas is a great example. Boeing acquired and rather than keep the HQ/culture in Seattle, they moved to Chicago. The culture changed and Boeing hasn't been the same since. Anyone want to see Cliffs have Boeing-type issues. There is a reason why Cliffs had success - yielding to USX's demands and moving the culture is a recipe for disaster -from a business perspective :)

WHEN DOES AN ACQUIREE GET TO DICTATE TERMS (LIKE A HQ LOCATION)? -If US Steel chose Nippon because they were going to keep the HQ in Pitt - that's adorable (that deal is dead) -US Steel needs to be acquired and Cliffs is the acquirer -For all your bluster Mr. Goncalves, you're in the driver's seat and can dictate terms -The HQ and staffing should be in Cleveland - FULL STOP Anything less and Mr. Goncalves is less than his image and bluster

Trump level bluster. -Crazy that an acquiring company would move to the acquiree's headquarters -Crazy that a newly formed American behemoth would move into an inefficient 1970's space -Crazy that the headquarters would move to a smaller space (I'm pretty sure there are not 1,000 employees in US Steel Tower) Like Trump, I would suggest we follow the actions and not the bluster

Seems highly unlikely that a permanent solutions for a larger company would be to move their headquarters to a Tower in Pittsburgh built in 1970. Cliffs wanted a new headquarters. Interest rates and the cost of construction have come way down since the pandemic. If this deal goes through, time to dust off those old headquarters plans and build a new, efficient towering building that represents the strong, American steel company that Mr. Goncalves is talking about. Sorry, that isn't the USX tower.

Trump with an accent

Wouldn't that be lovely. From your lips to God's ears

Heard anything thing about Tower 2???

Yes - can't wait to see the lighting. And any rumors re: phase 2

Great pics!!!! This is our time Cleveland. The macro-trends favor a resurgence. Have faith and invest in this amazing city!!!

I would think so
