Large Tech continues to make a committment to NYC. Facebook, which still has a presence at 770 Broadway is rumored to be expanding by 400,000 SF there. This coming on the heels of its 1.5 million SF acquisition of space in 2020. Google exercised its option to purchase its newest flagship, the St. John's Terminal in Hudson Square. The $2.1 billion dollar purchase adds to their portfolio of owned Buildings in NYC which also includes Cheldea Market, 85 Tenth Avenue, Milk Studios and 111 Eighth Avenue. Additionally, Amazon and Microsoft have expansion requirements underway for approximately 150,000 SF each.

– Biotech/life science remains a bright spot amidst the current pandemic and subsequent recession. Positive fundamentals, strong venture funding and public markets, etc. are driving this segment of the marketplace. – Layoffs in consumer-facing tech companies is a key driver behind the market’s rising sublease inventory. TAMI accounts for more than 35% of available subleases Downtown and 42% of available sublease in Cambridge. – Tech tenants with impending lease expirations are willing to let them expire without c committing to a new lease. Work-from-home policies have been sufficient or successful enough to allow these users to wait until 2021 or for a vaccine before going back out into the market again. – While there are fewer tenants in the market, TAMI tenants still account for roughly 25% of all requirements Downtown.

While TAMI tenants continue to account for an above-average share of sublease availabilities, the pace of growing inventories has slowed in recent months.
Since January of 2020, TAMI tenants have accounted for 51% of sublease transactions on a SF basis. Tech tenants are looking for shorter terms/flexibility as well as low capital output in focusing on subleases.

Some tech companies are downsizing their footprints – LogMeIn, Quickbase, Cayan, etc.
Big tech is moving forward with new and planned office requirements. Amazon’s recent expansion in the Seaport is the most recent example.

Overall demand remains low due to uncertainty of Covid19 and reentry across DC, MD and VA.
DC is struggling and has hit an all-time high vacancy rate for the CBD (Central Business District) Submarket – approaching 17%.
Major tech companies remain bullish – Microsoft leased a total of 600K in 2020 in Northern VA, Facebook looking for expansion in DC.
270 corridor in MD is very hot market due to the biotech companies expanding and looking for lab space. Lab space is a hot commodity with very few options.

Facebook, Google, Indeed, and Apple all intend to come back to the office. All have continued large-scale developments or build-out projects currently underway.
More VC and PE firms are relocating to Austin as they look to drive significantly more dollars into the Austin start-up scene. This should continue to help fuel growth in the metro from both the perspective of added jobs and the demand for office space.
In addition to Tesla, the eastside of the Austin metro already contains a very significant presence of Samsung and Applied Materials, both at over 2 million square feet and growing. Amazon has a 3.8 million square foot facility under construction in the area, and there are rumors circulating that all of Elon Musk’s companies (The Boring Company, Neuralink, Space X) will soon have a presence in the area.
Tesla land assemblage (now ~3,000 acres), and subsequent development of their Texas gig-factory has led to an exponential increase in demand on the east side of the Austin metro. This demand consists of primarily industrial, single-family, and multi-family uses, but significant office demand will soon follow as roof-tops and resident counts increase.

As of the end of July, Northern California received 36% of the VC capital invested nationally in 22% of the deals funded in 2021. Total investment in the first half of 2021 has already surpassed annual total investment for every year prior to 2020. San Francisco alone received 48% of Northern California funding and 17% of national VC funding in 2021.
Of the 53 San Francisco tech tenants with 100K+ sf, 26 have sublease space on the market. Total sublease spaced offered by these tenants is 3.5 MSF, or 17% of the footprint of the 100K+ tech tenants.
Current tenant demand has increased and is now 7% above the average tenant demand between 2015-2019.
Since large blocks of available space were such a precious commodity over the last couple years, several tech companies land-banked space for future growth. Some of this space has come back on the sublease market, such as Dropbox putting 36% of its new headquarters space on the market for sublease.

The Atlanta region added roughly 38,500 total jobs in June, representing the best month employment gains since last August. Improvement in Atlanta’s office-using employment sectors is enhanced by the influx of major corporate relocations and expansions.
The 16 buildings under development are 46.7% pre-leased. While the properties are spread throughout the market, 40.2% of the space is under way in Midtown, Atlanta’s most bustling tech submarket.
Atlanta ranked an impressively high sixth (6th), making it the only city in the Southeast to chart in the top 10 list for Top Metro Areas that drive the electric vehicle trend in the US.
