Office supply hit a record high in 2016 with 410,000 sq m put into use. Warsaw\u2019s total office stock topped 5.1 million sq m at the end of H1 2017.<\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cThe rapid growth of the Warsaw office market over the last year and a half has led to geographic changes to two of the capital\u2019s three key office zones. The City Core is expanding westwards and northwards, while the Central Business District is growing northwards and eastwards,\u201d\u00a0<\/em>said Kamila Wykrota, Partner, Head of Consulting and Research, Cushman &amp; Wakefield Poland.<\/p>\n<p>60% of existing office space is located in Warsaw\u2019s three core office zones: the Central Business District, the City Core and S\u0142u\u017cewiec, accounting for only 4% of the city\u2019s total area.<\/p>\n<p>At the end of June 2017 the development pipeline stood at 720,000 sq m, 67% of which was located in the Central Business District and the City Centre West. The six largest office projects under construction include Varso, Warsaw Hub, Mennica Legacy, Generation Park, Spark and Spinnaker. They are expected to provide 370,000 sq m of new office space, accounting for more than half the development pipeline.<\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cThis year\u2019s office supply in Warsaw is expected to hit 320,000 sq m, slightly above the 2012\u20132016 average. Approximately 190,000 sq m is to be delivered to the market in 2018 and a further 315,000 sq m in 2019. If there is no change in economic conditions and all development projects are completed, Warsaw is likely to see a record-high office supply of 430,000 sq m in 2020. Despite significant year-on-year fluctuations, the rate of growth of the Warsaw office market remains stable with limited changes in average supply levels in the longer term. This shows that the Warsaw market has reached another stage of maturity,\u201d\u00a0<\/em>said Kamila Wykrota.<\/p>\n<p>The high office supply in 2016 pushed the vacancy rate in Warsaw up from 7% in 2012 to 14% at the end of Q1 2017. However, the strong net absorption and slowdown in development activity projected for the Warsaw market is likely to push the vacancy rate down to 13.5% in 2018.<\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cAs we are witnessing an increasing tenant bias towards central locations, we expect an increase in office projects in the Central Business District with about 310,000 sq m to be added to this market by 2021, representing a 37% rise. We also expect increased interest over the next three to five years in the City Centre North, the area near the junction of Sobieskiego and Beethovena streets in the Mokot\u00f3w zone and in the Praga district of the East zone, all benefiting from infrastructure improvements, revitalisation of post-industrial urban areas and a holistic approach to spatial planning,\u201d\u00a0<\/em>added Kamila Wykrota<em>.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Polish office market has seen rapid growth with Warsaw\u2019s office stock more than doubling over the last ten years, as revealed by global real estate services firm Cushman &amp; Wakefield in its cyclical report\u00a0Skyline Tracker, outlining modern office supply forecasts.
