San Francisco's infamous 'poop mall' just sold for 10% of its original value – and nobody else even bothered to bid on it. The Westfield Center, once valued at $1.2 billion, transferred to lenders for a measly $133 million after years of human waste in elevators, 95% vacancy, and complete business exodus. This isn't just a real estate story – it's a masterclass in how progressive policies can literally turn a premier shopping destination into a ghost town where Panda Express is the only tenant brave enough to stay open. When store managers are slipping on human feces in elevators and closing restrooms due to drug use and prostitution, is anyone surprised that Nordstrom packed up and left? The new mayor is trying to clean things up, but can San Francisco actually recover from this level of urban decay? Will anyone be crazy enough to buy this beautiful but cursed property, and what would it take to bring shoppers back to a mall famous for its elevator surprises? Let me know in the comments what you think this disaster will actually sell for when it hits the market again.
