The report includes information that Warsaw with the resources of 5.6 million sq m. of space remains an unsurpassed office leader in Poland. The capital agglomeration has facilities comparable in size to the total offer in the 6 largest regional cities in the country. Warsaw offices are primarily located in three districts: Mokot\u00f3w, \u015ar\u00f3dmie\u015bcie and Wola. They include about 75 per cent of space available in the city. Over a quarter of the resources are situated in the largest office buildings, exceeding 30 thousand sq m.<\/p>\n<p>However, 2019 was not successful for several Warsaw investments, the opening of which has been postponed to this year. Hence, office resources in Warsaw increased last year only by about 165 thousand sq m. of space, which is the lowest result in years. Among the office buildings that have appeared on the market, one may mention Wola Retro, Spark B, Generation Z, Moje Miejsce I, Vector and The Park B6.<\/p>\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_84 counter-hierarchy ez-toc-counter ez-toc-grey ez-toc-container-direction\">\n<div class=\"ez-toc-title-container\">\n<p class=\"ez-toc-title\" style=\"cursor:inherit\">Table of Contents<\/p>\n<span class=\"ez-toc-title-toggle\"><a href=\"#\" class=\"ez-toc-pull-right ez-toc-btn ez-toc-btn-xs ez-toc-btn-default ez-toc-toggle\" aria-label=\"Toggle Table of Content\"><span class=\"ez-toc-js-icon-con\"><span class=\"\"><span class=\"eztoc-hide\" style=\"display:none;\">Toggle<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-icon-toggle-span\"><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" class=\"list-377408\" width=\"20px\" height=\"20px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\"><path d=\"M6 6H4v2h2V6zm14 0H8v2h12V6zM4 11h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2zM4 16h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2z\" fill=\"currentColor\"><\/path><\/svg><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" class=\"arrow-unsorted-368013\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"10px\" height=\"10px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" version=\"1.2\" baseProfile=\"tiny\"><path d=\"M18.2 9.3l-6.2-6.3-6.2 6.3c-.2.2-.3.4-.3.7s.1.5.3.7c.2.2.4.3.7.3h11c.3 0 .5-.1.7-.3.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7zM5.8 14.7l6.2 6.3 6.2-6.3c.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7c-.2-.2-.4-.3-.7-.3h-11c-.3 0-.5.1-.7.3-.2.2-.3.5-.3.7s.1.5.3.7z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a><\/span><\/div>\n<nav><ul class='ez-toc-list ez-toc-list-level-1 ' ><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-1\" href=\"https:\/\/ceo.com.pl\/en\/2019-record-high-demand-for-warsaw-offices-and-the-highest-supply-in-the-regions-66805\/#COVID-19_curbed_the_record_high_growth_of_the_Warsaw_market\" >COVID-19 curbed the record high growth of the Warsaw market<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-2\" href=\"https:\/\/ceo.com.pl\/en\/2019-record-high-demand-for-warsaw-offices-and-the-highest-supply-in-the-regions-66805\/#Regional_markets_with_the_largest_supply_in_history\" >Regional markets with the largest supply in history<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-3\" href=\"https:\/\/ceo.com.pl\/en\/2019-record-high-demand-for-warsaw-offices-and-the-highest-supply-in-the-regions-66805\/#There_are_as_many_offices_under_construction_in_Warsaw_as_there_are_in_total_in_the_regions\" >There are as many offices under construction in Warsaw, as there are in total in the regions<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-4\" href=\"https:\/\/ceo.com.pl\/en\/2019-record-high-demand-for-warsaw-offices-and-the-highest-supply-in-the-regions-66805\/#Market_absorption_is_higher_than_new_supply\" >Market absorption is higher than new supply<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/nav><\/div>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"COVID-19_curbed_the_record_high_growth_of_the_Warsaw_market\"><\/span>COVID-19 curbed the record high growth of the Warsaw market<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>&#8211; The structure of supply in Warsaw, however, is changing dynamically, as several large-scale projects are being implemented in the agglomeration, mostly in the central area of the city. They are to enter the market this year and the next. Developers&#8217; activity is now concentrating mainly in Wola, especially around the Daszy\u0144skiego roundabout, with the largest amount of construction sites. Over 750 thousand sq m. of space is currently under construction in Warsaw. And if it wasn\u2019t for COVID-19, this year&#8217;s new supply could have reached a record high in the capital &#8211; over 400 thousand sq m. of space &#8211; informs Krzysztof Foks, Analyst at Walter Herz.<\/p>\n<p>Varso Place, Warsaw Hub, Skyliner Generation Park, Skysawa, Mennica Legacy Tower, Moje Miejsce II and DSV headquarters are among the facilities currently under construction.<\/p>\n<p>In order to lease the highest class space in the central area of the city, one has to spend up to EUR 27\/ sq m.\/month. An office outside the center can be found at a price of around EUR 10\/sq m.\/month. There is no shortage of those willing to pay for lease in these locations. 2019 saw the highest demand for Warsaw offices in history. The year ended with a result of almost 900 thousand sq m. of leased space.<\/p>\n<p>A small amount of space delivered with such a high demand for offices in Warsaw resulted in a decrease in the vacancy rate to 7.8 per cent.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Regional_markets_with_the_largest_supply_in_history\"><\/span>Regional markets with the largest supply in history<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>&#8211; In 2019, we observed high developer activity in regional business centers in the country. Over 60 office projects were commissioned, which brought a total of about 550 thousand sq m. of modern space. In terms of total supply, the regions have caught up and even slightly surpassed Warsaw. At the end of last year, total office resources in Poland already amounted to over 11 million sq m. of space &#8211; says Bart\u0142omiej Zagrodnik, Managing Partner\/CEO at Walter Herz.<\/p>\n<p>Last year in Cracow, 16 commissioned buildings provided a similar amount of space as in Warsaw &#8211; about 160 thousand sq m., and in Wroc\u0142aw a little less, nearly 150 thousand sq m. of offices have been launched to the market. Over 85 thousand sq m. of space was delivered in Pozna\u0144, due to which the total resources of the city increased to around 565 thousand sq m. In the Tri-City, office supply increased by over 60 thousand sq m. A similar number of new offices also appeared in \u0141\u00f3d\u017a, thanks to which the city already has office resources of over 0.5 million sq m. of space.<\/p>\n<p>In Cracow, the office map has gained, among others V Offices Fabryczna Office Park and Mogilska Office, whereas Wroc\u0142aw has gotten the second stage of Business Garden, Carbon Tower, Nowy Targ and City Forum City One. Among the new projects completed in 2019 in Pozna\u0144, was the second stage of Business Garden, a building in Nowy Rynek complex and Castor, while in \u0141\u00f3d\u017a, building B in Brama Miasta complex, Imagine Stara Drukarnia and Monopolis M1.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"There_are_as_many_offices_under_construction_in_Warsaw_as_there_are_in_total_in_the_regions\"><\/span>There are as many offices under construction in Warsaw, as there are in total in the regions<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Nearly 1.6 million sq m. of office space is under construction in the largest cities in the country.

Around 135 thousand sq m. of space is being implemented in the city, in such projects as Global Office Park, Face 2 Face and DL Center Point II.<\/p>\n<p>In Wroc\u0142aw, in turn, 100 thousand sq m. of space is under construction, among others, in MidPoint, Centrum Po\u0142udnie and West 4 Business Hub investments.
