No doubt there is an upheaval being felt across the various market segments of commercial real estate in the wake of the pandemic, however, many of those transformations were underway well before COVID sent the world economy into a tailspin. Trends such as companies shifting to distributed work environments (combining remote and in-office options), migration to the suburbs by millennials, an increase in online shopping, and a movement away from the open office concept were taking place long before the pandemic struck. An examination of those trends as well as future developments in the industry was the subject of the September CREW Boston program, “Industry Update: How the Pandemic has Accelerated Shifts in all Market Segments” at the Hyatt Regency Boston, presented by Julia Georgules, Senior Director of Research at JLL.
