20% paycuts
Ige should offer the unions a choice: everyone keeps their job with a pay cut, or the State can shut down 20% of non-essential services and maybe sell some parks to developers.
Shutting down services gets you there faster: once the people are gone, you can get rid of their building and all its expenses. Start with remote DMV offices and satellite City halls. People can spend hours driving downtown, that's life in the big city.
Of course there's always rail, but I'm pretty sure it would cost more to shut it down given that City&County is already giving away P3 contracts.
