Midtown had the second highest amount of office space absorbed in the first quarter. Occupancy increased by 241,527 square feet during the period. The largest move-ins contributing to this increase were mostly full floor transactions; examples being Ogilvy & Mather at 217 17th Street, Gensler at 999 Peachtree and Routematch at One Atlantic Center.

Leasing activity in Midtown has been fairly consistent and steady over the past year. Since the first quarter of 2012, the overall office vacancy rate in the submarket has dropped one percent.

The average rental rate for office space in Midtown is the highest in the Atlanta market at $24.52/sf. Still, despite the positive conditions, rents have yet to show any signs of trending upwards.

Looking ahead, Midtown is expected to be one of the stronger office submarkets in Atlanta in 2012.

• Novare

proposes Midtown apartment tower: Atlanta developer Novare Group is proposing a new apartment tower in Midtown located near the intersection of Juniper and 6th Streets. The project which is being called 100 6th Street would consist of up to 320 units with street-level retail in a 23-story tower. The developer currently has SkyHouse, a 320-unit apartment tower, under construction at West Peachtree and 12th Streets. With both projects Novare is looking to take advantage of Atlanta’s growing population of young adults and the “rentership society” caused by the housing market collapse. in lead to buy Ten Peachtree Place: Following a brief stint on the market, Ten Peachtree Place is now under contract and expected to close by the end of May. Cousins Properties and CocaCola are expected to sell the 260,000 SF office building to Prudential Real Estate Investors for what could be $200 per square foot. The building’s largest tenant, AGL, signed a long-term renewal last year in the building. This lease renewal helped solidify Ten Peachtree Place as a core asset and is a reason why Prudential Real Estate was attracted to purchasing the building.

• Ad

agency Ogilvy & Mather makes big move to Midtown: Manhattan ad agency Ogilvy & Mather recently moved from its current offices in Roswell and Buckhead to 271 17th Street. The company opened its second U.S. digital labs in the new space, and moved some of its digital marketing functions from New York to Atlanta. The ad agency took a full floor in the building, or about 26,724 SF. The move into the heart of the city brings Ogilvy & Mather closer to some of its biggest clients, and also allows it to recruit new talent.
