| sit vacant | пустовать (It’s a big decision to let an investment sit empty after you’ve put hundreds of thousands of dollars into it—or even millions. But it might make financial sense to some, says Kuester. “If it’s sitting, it’s because the owners believe there’s a higher and better use associated with waiting.” The giant building on Broadway that used to house Mountain Equipment Co-op, for example, has sat vacant for several years while owner Jon Stovell waited for the city to come out with its Broadway Plan, which will allow him much more density for the site.  bcbusiness.ca ART Vancouver) |
