Seoul 16.4 6.7 7.8
São Paulo 16.1 16.1 9.2 Pacific, Latin America and Canada all posted healthy growth rates and
Abu Dhabi 12.9 13.1 9.3 showed signs of future expansion. The United States and much of Europe,
Mexico City 12.5 11.3 9.5 however, chalked up another six month period of tepid demand. With the

Beijing 9.3 9.9 11.5
Singapore 7.6 8.3 10.0 rents were more mixed. Midyear is almost certain to mark an inflection point

Hamburg 3.8 5.3 4.8 of 0.3 percentage points since year-end and 1.3 percentage points over the

Frankfurt 3.1 3.9 3.8 particularly acute in Dubai, Riyadh, Sofia, Bucharest, Athens, Abu Dhabi,

New York – Downtown Manhattan 2.6 6.6 4.6 and eight markets have vacancy over 20.0 percent. While the trend for the

was an increase of 31 percent from the second half of 2009 and a 37
