The divide in Detroit's office market continues to widen. High-quality Class A buildings are outperforming, while many older Class B & C assets face growing pressure.

Manhattan posted 15.5M SF of positive office absorption in 2025 — a record.

Drivers:
✔ Flight to quality
✔ RTO mandates
✔ Professional services demand
✔ Less sublet space

Detroit is seeing the same trend (just at a different scale):
tenants chasing better buildings.

[Gary Grochowski @ggrochowski]

The Detroit office market feels quiet — but it’s not demand, it’s rhythm.

Hybrid schedules + winter disruptions = delayed planning.

But momentum is building. The conversations are there. The demand is real.

🏢 https://t.co/bAQ1Exii01’s Nov 2025 Office Index hit its highest weekday occupancy since 2019.

RTO momentum is real — even if total visits are still below pre-pandemic.

📊 The office isn’t dead. It's just being used differently.

I was asked to contribute to a national office market survey. Some quick thoughts:

🏢 Amenities = top priority
📉 Base rent = less important than you think
⚠️ 2025 surprise = EV slowdown impact
🔮 2026 trend = High-quality, amenity-rich buildings win
📦 Concerns = More leasing, but less space per employee #ColliersDetroit #NowHiring #DetroitOfficeSpace #DetroitAgencyTeam

Metro Detroit’s office market is sending mixed signals. Law firms are active, users are buying buildings, but overall leasing has slowed.
