I’m happy to have the cost transferred (some parts are debateable, I need internet, a desk, and a monitor for home anyways) if it means no more commuting and no more open offices. My focus has significantly increased in the past few months.

Right, it’s convenient, but Port Authority competes closely with Penn Station and Times Square for “most loathed place in New York”.

Compare with Google office in Chelsea or FB office in the East Village (ish). Those are pretty nice places to walk around.
