NYC Lockdown v2

With covid cases & delta variant rising again is there any chance banks close their offices again and we're back in a mandatory wfh state? I recently signed a new offer at a BB and with the hours and their back to office plan I'm going to have to look for a place in the city, but with cases creeping back up is there any chance banks shut down offices again? I just don't want to pay a ridiculous amount for a shoebox just to have rents come back down a month later and me be stuck in a 12mo. lease.

Any insight from people and their bank's back to office updates is helpful as well!

Yea from what I understand the group I'm joining will have a hybrid model but I know my group head would want me there every day to get situated and meet the team. So unless like its a mandatory shutdown or a huge shift in cases I'll prob have to go in daily. So you signed a lease recently with a late move-in date?
