San Francisco’s Union Square is decked out with the great tree lit up and wreaths decorating the retail store windows. However, it could be the last year it looks like this.

According to Macy’s employees, the fate of the flagship store has yet to be determined.

“It’s all in the hands of what folks outside of what we do in the store day to day, but as long as we’re here and the community continues to support us, that’s what we’re focused on,” said Jonathan Davis, Macy’s Union Square store manager.

Company representatives said there are plans to redevelop the property with several different partners in the future but did not disclose more details.

“I am not worried because we are not going to let that happen. It’s so important, and I think that’s all of that together if we show Macy’s that if we come down, we do our part because if that’s what we want, if we want them to stay, we gotta show them we want them to stay,” said Marisa Rodriguez, CEO of the Union Square Alliance.

However, visitors said they heard it would be the last year the store looked the way it is.

“We’ve been gradually seeing things close, especially in downtown San Francisco, so it’s a little sad,” said Fernando Larranaga.

Mayor London Breed addressed the retail giant’s comment earlier this year when it was announced that it was shuttering 150 stores nationwide. Breed added then that Macy’s was looking to sell its Union Square property.

“It is one of the most spectacular, amazing places anywhere in San Francisco during the holiday season,” she said.

Despite the rumors, visitors are holding on to whatever hope they have.

Burke reportedly considered the attack to be an “act of liberation,” according to charging documents. She has been accused of strangling, biting and hacking her father, 67, to death in their $800,000 Seattle home.

According to Burke’s LinkedIn, she is a training program manager at Blue Origin, Jeff Bezos’ spacecraft company. She is married to prominent transgender writer Samantha Leigh Allen, author of the acclaimed book Real Queer America: LGBT Stories from Red States, as well as an editor at Them, a Conde Nast transgender news publication. Burke told police that the murder was meant to “help people change their attachment to their parents” and “had to happen today.”

The murder of Timothy Burke

Burke had been upset about the election, and knew Trump would beat Kamala Harris. An already agitated Burke reportedly snapped when her dad, Timothy Burke, refused to switch the lights off.

Burke then went upstairs to bring an ice “pickaxe,” before tripping her father, biting and strangling him on the floor, and then repeatedly hitting him with the blunt and sharp ends of the tool, according to cops. She then sat down beside her father and watched him die, before smashing all the windows of the house “‘as an act of liberation,’” officers said. Cops arrived to find Burke “clapping … because she was so happy.”

Burke told cops that her relationship with her dad had been strained, and there were no strong “boundaries,” which has left her feeling “hyperfocused and disorganized.” She said it was Trump’s victory that “overwhelmed” her and pushed her to the breaking point.

When cops initially arrived at the scene, Burke stepped out of the house with her hands raised and face covered in blood. However, she said she did not know where the blood came from or who broke the windows.

Eventually, she described what happened, and whispered to one of the officers, “I killed him,” according to charging documents. She has been charged with first-degree murder, and is currently being held on a $2 million bail.
