    3rd Annual Downtown Forum

    September 24th, 2019
    225 Liberty Street - New York, NY
    7:30 AM - 10:30 AM

    About the Event

    2018 was a banner year in the Downtown market for commercial office leasing, and 2019 shows no change in this trend. Leasing activity continues to diversify and there is plenty of new supply coming to market.

    In a world that offers (and often requires) flexibility, the commercial real estate market is no exception and the industry is witnessing a major transformation. Of the many challenges and opportunities, innovation is driving the majority of leasing and development decisions. New developments throughout Lower Manhattan are demonstrating the confluence of lifestyle and demographic change, attributed to a growing demand for live-work-play communities.

    Join Commercial Observer for its 3rd Annual Downtown Forum as market experts debate the most important drivers in the office market in Lower Manhattan, including:

    • How owners and developers are reinventing their spaces
    • How demand-side with job growth and supply-side with adaptive reuse of inventory is creating a more dynamic commercial market
    • The growing emphasis on providing green and amenitized buildings
    • How the co-working phenomenon is leading commercial real estate owners to find creative ways to maximize value
    • Understanding the impact of co-working and flexibility on how office buildings approach cash flow and valuation
    • How might the new market trends survive a possible economic downturn



    Who Should Attend 

    Leasing Brokers • Owners • Developers •  Law Firms • Accounting Firms • Technology Firms • Other Professional Services Firms
