TI allowances are also growing as landlords fight to attract tenants in increasingly tightening markets.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere is a complex message in the data; the volume of construction is increasing but is still below historical norms,\u201d Ethan Milley, JLL\u2019s international director &amp; leader for its U.S. Southeast project and development services group, told Commercial Property Executive. \u201cWhat that does not take into account is the number of skilled construction employees who left the industry from 2009-2012, leaving a much smaller workforce to meet the current demands.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>While the current demand includes new large sectors like manufacturing, which often requires a higher skill level by contractors, the number of employees is starting to rebound.<\/p>\n<p>Millennials are driving the HR strategy of many firms now, with the forecast that they will account for almost half of the workforce by 2020.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTo attract Millennials, companies are having to rethink not just the design of their workplaces, but also the location and flexibility of work environments,\u201d Milley said. \u201cMillennials want more collaborative flexible workspaces\u2014We versus Me\u2014and they want it where they are right now, not at some fixed location. Companies are challenged to locate in more urban locations and spread offices around. Think Zappos in Downtown Las Vegas and Twitter in Downtown San Francisco.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>According to the report, TI costs are declining in most key markets, as landlords eager to compete for tenants are more willing to pay for them. For office building owners, the average TI package nationwide is approximately $30-$50 per-square-foot in Central Business Districts as tenants look to customize office space to attract and retain employees\u2014especially Millennials.<\/p>\n<p>Some of the best ways to attract the segment are to align the workplace technology around today\u2019s standards-anywhere, anytime, BYOD and the flexible collaborative type of workspaces they want to work in.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cA workspace can drive the culture of a company and that culture is evident in its workspace,\u201d Milley added. \u201cGetting Millennials to make their career decisions through a collaborative and flexible workspace has the best ROI.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>With construction starts at their highest point since the recession, the industry is still in the early stages of its recovery and will continue to grow in response to overall economic growth.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cConstruction activity and TIs will continue to be important, and we can expect construction in secondary markets to grow as smaller companies get priced out of large markets,\u201d Milley concluded.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A new report from JLL reveals a few surprises about the Millennial generation&#8217;s impact on the built environment in 2015.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":451,"featured_media":1004126757,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[37301],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1004126755","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v28.0 (Yoast SEO v28.0) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Millennials Shaping Development?
