Miami-Dade Contract Activity
Posted by:
After years of downsizing, tech companies are back in Manhattan’s office market. OpenAI just signed a 90,000-square-foot lease at the Puck Building in Soho—its first NYC office—while fintech firm Chime took 84,000 square feet in Flatiron and AI startup AlphaSense grabbed 50,000 in Hudson Yards.

South Florida’s retail market is holding firm, with a historic-low vacancy rate of 3.5% for the third straight quarter, outperforming the national average of 4.2%, according to Colliers. However, a sharp imbalance is emerging: demand remains high, yet new construction is limited, with only 9.6 million square feet of vacant space across the tri-county region.
Investors remain focused on grocery-anchored retail centers, with major acquisitions continuing despite limited supply. However, Colliers warns that unless development accelerates, leasing activity may slow in 2025 due to a lack ...
