The Math Ain’t Mathing

As discussed in a recent post, Gannon is selling one of their building on State St. for $2.2 million. So let’s do a comparison. The building is 63,000 square feet. This means that they are asking $34.92 per square foot for real estate on State Street, but they are paying (checks notes) $7 per square foot for bayfront property at our Blasco Library. And that price stays the same for 25-45 years. The math ain’t mathing! How is this fair to taxpayers or our library?
