Are you committed to protecting the existing jobs of current Ireland workers?
Nora Martins

Yes.
2:58:29
Absolutely.

And actually, part of what this plan will facilitate is not only the relocation, but also building back the number of workers that they had at in Brooklyn pre pandemic.

Understood.
2:58:43
And that's that's good news.

Will this development create good paying jobs for building service workers?

I don't have the number of jobs right now, but we are in active discussions with 32 BJ and look forward to providing an update on that soon.
