We develop a dynamic spatial model with forward-looking households who choose residential location, workplace location, housing tenure, and WFH frequency. The model features commuting, costly migration, uninsurable income risk, housing-market frictions, commercial and residential real estate, and local public finance: local taxes fund endogenous amenities. We interpret the post-2020 economy as a transition to a new long-run spatial equilibrium and characterize the resulting paths of residential and commercial real estate prices, the locations of residents and jobs, income sorting, commuting, local tax revenues, amenities, and welfare. The model provides a framework for quantifying whether WFH triggers an urban doom loop, whereby declines in commercial real estate values erode the local tax base, reduce amenities, and further depress demand for central-city locations. We use the framework to evaluate return-to-office mandates and fiscal transfers. We also study office-to-residential conversions as a way to increase housing supply as well as speed up transition in response to the WFH shock.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-spacer is-spacer-size-sm\"><\/div>\n\n\n<h5 class=\"has-text-align-left wp-block-unilux-blocks-heading\"        id=\"about-the-speaker\"\n    >\n±¬ÁÏ³Ô¹ÏÍø the speaker<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.andrii-parkhomenko.com\/\">Andrii Parkhomenko<\/a> is an assistant professor at the University of Southern California and a visiting fellow at Kyiv School of Economics.
