Different rent measures in the earlier report

An earlier Boston City Properties account discussed industrial and logistics-space rent growth in Greater Boston during late 2020 and early 2021. It distinguished asking rents from taking rents, described as first-year base rents for leases of at least 12 months.

Metro Boston base-rent growth was reported as 14.8%, alongside a national ranking. U.S. asking and taking-rent measures used different periods, which matters when comparing those earlier figures.

Other markets and the demand explanation

Northern New Jersey, California’s Inland Empire, Philadelphia, Louisville and Orange County were comparison markets. The source connected warehouse demand with e-commerce, ports, population centers, limited vacancy and slower construction.

The account projected e-commerce’s share of sales for 2025 and further industrial growth beyond Boston. Those were expectations within the earlier market discussion.

Compare actual warehouse or logistics premises

Describe the operation, area, loading, storage, access, services, location and purchase or lease preference. Ask which premises and agreement information are available and compare the quoted period, included charges and condition.

Ask Amo Realty - Boston City Properties about current premises information and proposed terms. Have use, condition, technical, legal and financing questions reviewed for the specific warehouse or logistics property.
