Future Upside through Lease-Up of Vacant Spaces

Asking rents continue to steadily climb, with quality office space adjacent to premium amenities experiencing rents much higher than market averages. Additionally, the overall building stock is being lowered as office-to-residential conversions take over 1.4M square feet out of competition.
