The office leasing landscape is evolving, and the latest data from VTS reveals some big shifts for 2025: ?? NYC: Leasing demand is growing modestly, up 2% from 2024. The city remains the top office market in the U.S., but demand is shifting towards premium spaces. ?? San Francisco: After years of struggles, the market is poised for a major comeback—leasing activity is forecasted to jump 28% in 2025. A resurgence led by AI and tech firms (think OpenAI and Anthropic) is fueling this momentum. Return-to-office policies from major companies like Amazon, Starbucks, and AT&T are gaining traction, driving demand for flexible, high-amenity workspaces. At the same time, the market is shifting toward experience-driven office environments, where tenant needs and workplace design play a bigger role than ever.
