2Q16 | Office Market Report Occupancy Gain in Atlanta’s Office Market Stronger in the Second Quarte


With a quarterly revision showing a net total of only 12,000 square feet of office space absorbed in the first quarter, the 453,000 square feet of occupancy gain experienced in the second quarter is a welcomed improvement to Atlanta’s office market and shows the actual conditions taking place here.

  • Following a slow start to the year, Atlanta’s office absorption picked up in the second quarter with 453,000 square feet absorbed.
