“Office buildings are our factories – whether for tech, creative or traditional industries we must continue to grow our modern factories to create new jobs,” said United States Senator Chuck Schumer.
It's not just you... it really did start a long time ago. Shoring began in Oct. 2017. So it's been 8 years now...

Is it the fault of the government that The One is taking forever?

Maybe it was 1 of the 4 if the missing or incorrect permits were caused by government being slow to issue them or issued the them incorrectly. The others are not attributable to the government however. Covid would still have existed regardless of how the government responded, and would have caused labour shortages and disruptions due to people being sick (and occasionally dying) as we saw in jurisdictions with a wide variety of policies. The lawsuits were filed by the creditors, buyers and/or retail tenants rather than the government. And while courts are considered a branch of the government, the receivership would never have happened without the developer's financial issues. So government is directly responsible for anywhere from zero to one of those reasons.
