CBRE says in a report that “the future looks bright for industrial development in New Jersey, particularly in the central part of the state.”
CBRE’s 3rd Quarter New Jersey Industrial MarketView Report speculated “that the Trenton/Route 295 and Princeton markets will see a higher volume of activity as the year continues.”
This follows a strong third quarter, in which the Trenton/Route 295 submarket recorded the third-largest leasing velocity in Central Jersey.
Facts Driving the Market
+ Lack of development in the area
+ Lower lease rates
+ Convenient access to the New Jersey Turnpike
+ Continued demand from both tenants and developers
+ Activity in the eight New Jersey Turnpike core submarkets accounted for nearly 83 percent of the state’s leasing velocity in 2016
+ Asking lease rates in four of the eight submarkets have exceeded their pre-recession highs
+ Availability in the markets was only 6.4%
+ New industrial construction remained strong in the third quarter with 7 projects completed
+ 9 more developments are breaking ground, total of 2.1 million square feet planned
