April 17, 2009 — TREB Commercial Members reported 421,642 square feet of space in March according to Garry Lander, Commercial Council Chair. This compares to the 933,299 square feet recorded during March of 2008.

Lease rates for Industrial space (all size categories) came in at $5.59 sfn, unchanged from March 2009. “The lower level of activity seems to have translated into a flattening of rental rates,” Mr. Lander commented.
