Q2 2020
Pittsburgh
Office Insight
Across the country, available sublease space is increasing. COVID-19 and the
move towards working remote has had a profound impact on the U.S. office
market. In Pittsburgh, the impact is noticeable, but not as severe. Less than
1.0 percent of the office inventory was made available through subleases in
the second quarter.
Although leasing activity declined in April and May, June showed a return
towards normal levels. As construction restrictions were lifted, several
speculative office projects in Pittsburgh resumed. The Vision on Fifteenth and
Liberty East both began site preparation, while Walnut Capital began
demolition of the existing buildings on the Innovation District site in Oakland.
Outlook
Absorption for the second quarter was negative by more than 500,000 square
feet due to several large blocks of sublease space becoming available, as well
as leasing activity taking a pause. But as construction picks back up and the
region moves towards the next normal, leasing activity is expected to
rebound.
Local investors are still bullish on the Pittsburgh market as Burns and Scalo,
LG Realty, and Walnut Capital continue development on the three largest
speculative office projects in the region. Demand is still evident for the new
construction projects as tenants emphasize a need for higher levels of safety
due to COVID-19. Touchless technologies and upgraded mechanicals are top-
of-mind, and landlords are adjusting accordingly. As the summer continues,
re-entry strategies will be implemented and the economy will regain some
footing. While this year may lag previous years due to uncontrollable
variables, Pittsburgh’s foundation remains strong and a recovery is not far
away.

The health, policy, economic and financialdisruption stemming from the COVID-19 pandemic continues to
create a fluid and evolving environment for the office market. Although data from Q2 is providing greater
clarity about conditions and the short-term real estate outlook, there remains significant uncertainty
surrounding market dynamics and long-term trajectories and, as a result, we will continue to monitor
fundamentalsclosely as the situation unfolds. Please feel free to contact us if we can assist.
