Los Angeles is home to two CBDs, with Downtown Los Angeles (DTLA) and Century City both attracting professional, financial and legal services to high-rise office environments. Traditional occupiers have generally led the push in bringing employees back to the office and are arguably in a better position to make long-term real estate decisions. This segment is expected to shape overall leasing fundamentals this year as many tech firms, which were active in prior years, remain dormant as they contend with lower market capitalizations and cost-cutting initiatives. There has been a disparity in these two office markets, with tenant demand, safety issues and debt troubles shaping contrasting fundamentals.
