Miami’s office market continued its good performance recorded at the beginning of the year, CommercialEdge data shows. The metro’s significant development pipeline was coupled with heightened investment activity, as assets changed hands at high prices.<\/p>\n\n\n

As of August, Miami’s office market had 2.8 million square feet of space under construction, representing 3.9 percent of existing stock\u2014well above the national figure of 1.0 percent. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Miami ranked third on a national level, behind Austin, Texas, which led with 4.6 percent of total stock, and Boston with 4.4 percent. Other peer markets trailed the national figure, including Los Angeles (0.9 percent), Washington, D.C., and Manhattan, both with 0.6 percent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The metro is among the top markets for potential office-to-residential conversion. CommercialEdge’s Conversion Feasibility Index <\/a>is a new tool that helps identify the amount of office space in the top U.S. markets that could be redeveloped into residential assets, based on a comprehensive list of building features. The index showed that in July, Miami’s office stock had a 16.1 percent conversion potential, higher than the national average of 14.8 percent of total stock.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Large office projects boosting Miami’s pipeline<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In terms of under-construction office space, the Magic City\u2019s pipeline outperformed that of Manhattan (2.7 million square feet), Los Angeles (2.6 million square feet), Washington, D.C. (2.2 million) and Seattle (2.1 million). Across peer markets, Chicago had the smallest pipeline, with 811,394 square feet underway, while Boston led the rankings with 11.2 million square feet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Year-to-date through August, developers broke ground on 538,842 square feet of space across six properties, while only four projects came online, totaling 249,138 square feet. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Offices at 601, a 155,100-square-foot high-rise, was the largest development to come online in the first eight months of 2024. Rising 51 stories at 601 Northeast 1st Ave., the tower was developed by an entity linked to Galmut Family and designed by prestigious architecture studio Arquitectonica.<\/p>\n\n\n

The high-rise will add 640,000 square feet of space to the city’s inventory. The Class A+ office tower is developed by OKO Group and Cain International<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The metro\u2019s deal volume has significantly increased since 2024\u2019s first quarter<\/a>, when it totaled $207 million.
