Block by block, Connecticut offices on the move

August 2, 2017

In Greenwich, expect one of Connecticut's most prestigious office buildings to fill again in a hurry after a recent, rare availability there; and possibly a slower go of it in Stamford to backfill the emptying offices of a former Fortuen 500 company.

Property Rounds: Some office buildings make comebacks in tough times

April 12, 2017

In early 2013, 9 W. Broad St. on the edge of downtown Stamford languished as an empty and neglected property. Today, it hums with activity as some 400 workers stream in and out of a refurbished nine-story structure. Stamford and other communities in southwestern Connecticut still grapple with office vacancy rates hovering above 20 percent. But the revitalization of 9 W. Broad St. and the turnaround of similar buildings show how property owners' capital investments and the draw of central locations can make corporate hubs attractive to tenants in a challenging market. "There is a little reticence in the market to being that first tenant in, so the owner has to prove themselves," said, principal ofÂ in Norwalk, a firm that represents tenants in commercial real estate transactions.
