Arrow Press, Zephyr, Dinwoody the Broadway between Main and State, Utah Theater and Eat a Burger. Look at the back side of where the Naked Fish (Formerly Mikado) and Cafe Molisse are, the whole damn second floor looks like it is going to implode. Most of the properties I listed really aren't worth saving now but the d-bag owners are the reason. But hey, we have plenty of surface parking.

While I agree wit of what you said there are some exceptions to the buildings you listed. Dinwoody, while not pretty, is a building that is still currently in use, and as you mentioned so it Naked Fish and Care' Molisse. Those buildings being occupied shows that they bones of those buildings aren't in dire condition, otherwise they would not be allowed to be occupied.
Other than that though I agree completely, the reason the bones of Arrow Press Square are worn out and decaying is because the 🞵🞵🞵 hole owners what as you said, bought it for cheap, have a loss on their books each year and are hoping that the CCH will be built there. Yes their site is right across the street from the Salt Palace, but I have no idea how they think there location will be picked. The APS property alone cannot accommodate what the CCH needs even if it where to go 50 stories high.
When I saw those two owners talking I wanted to punch both of them square in the jaw, like whoa are we, our building is in horrible condition and there's nothing we can do about it. 🞵🞵🞵 HOLES.
