Lease rates for this deal were not available but the average asking rent for office space in the area is about $20 per sf. The area continues to struggle to fill its space with availability rates at about 31% according to the most recent statistics by Spaulding & Slye Colliers. Excess sublease space is still driving much of those figures as vacancy rates for the area--which factors in only available direct space--is at 19%.
