Occupier Trends: Demographics and Talent Driving Space Decisions C Jason Price ushman & Wakefield has released a new re- port, Space Matters, which dives deep into four areas of importance to today’s tenants and landlords. It ana- lyzes the national trends be- hind office density, amenities, parking and concessions. The firm’s New Jersey research team assembled regional com- parison for one of these vital benchmarks. “With unemployment below 4%, companies are focusing on making smart decisions about their space – decisions that keep their employees happy and engaged,” said Revathi Greenwood, Americas Head of Research at Cushman & Wakefield. “Landlords are playing a critical role as well – ensuring their buildings stay competitive with a good mix of amenities, and afford- able parking, and of course concessions where necessary to attract top tenants.” The national report exam- ines in detail four top trends in office space: • Office density : Occupi- ers have been allocating less

However, there is large opportunity for growth in how technology amenities are leveraged by occupiers and landlords. • Parking : In many urban sub-markets parking supply is a challenge. Prices have been increasing, and occupiers are looking at creative options to meet the challenge. Also looming in the future is what impact autonomous vehicles may have on parking demand. • Concessions : Free rent and tenant improvement allow-

ances increased over the past year, but gains were driven by gateway markets in 2017. This trend will spread and some secondary markets will soften as absorption slows down and/ or new supply comes online. NEW JERSEY CONCESSIONS According to Cushman & Wakefield’s New Jersey re- search team, the Garden State ranked high among U.S. mar- kets experiencing increased concessions in 2017. The re- gion’s 13.5% year-over-year jump is considerably larger than the national average and was only outpaced by San Jose/Silicon Valley and three gateway markets (New York, San Francisco, and Boston). “Free rent grew from an average of $13 to $14 psf last year, and TI allowances continued on page 3A

“This transaction exempli- fies the strength of the com- mercial real estate market in Newark, especially in the Ironbound section,” said Sa- lomon. The newly renovated build- ing has undergone extensive capital improvements includ- ing a $1,000,000-plus gut renovation of the top and bottom floors, and half of the lobby. Approximately three miles from Newark Liberty International Airport, it is a prime location in the desir- able Ironbound section of Newark. Newark Penn Sta- tion, about 1.6 miles away, is a hub for trains, buses, and light rail only a short ride to New York City and a mono- rail to the airport, among other destinations. Gralla added, “There has been an unbelievable renais- sance occurring in Newark and this sale is a testament to the ever-growing strength of the market. We are very excited to be a part of the con- tinued improvement through- out this area.” Improvements to downtown Newark include a municipal project which will develop 22 acres between Newark’s central business district and the Ironbound with hous- ing, a three-acre park and a commercial center, linking the two neighborhoods by a pedestrian bridge over a highway.
