<strong> My husband told me he misses the food trucks downtown at lunch time. </strong> Pre-pandemic, he would often go to a food truck for a quick, affordable lunch. He could choose among many food options, but his favorite was Thai (a noodle dish). When my husband returned to the office, initially just a few days a week, and now every day, he quickly noticed the absence of the food trucks. <strong> What happened to those folks? Have they found another way to support themselves and their families? </strong> It is still very quiet in downtown D.C. We heard on the news that office occupancy has just gotten above a third of the pre-pandemic levels. It is sad. <strong> Cities need the hustle and bustle; the mingling of different people and diverse occupations and businesses.</strong>
