“New Jersey’s development market is very active, particularly when it comes to adaptive reuse,” says Sletteland. “Developers are revitalizing outdated corporate facilities and pharmaceutical campuses ... as new mixed-use hubs with commercial, residential and retail uses. We’re also seeing a wave of consolidations as large companies work to build or renovate spaces to bring together their dispersed workforces in modern, amenity-rich workspaces that better match the way people work today.”
