Boston Industrial Market Report 1Q26
Greater Boston's industrial market experienced its third consecutive quarter of negative net absorption, though leasing activity surged 68.9% year-over-year in the first quarter of 2026. Vacancy rose to 10.8% as new construction remained active, but the construction pipeline has fallen to a four-year low, suggesting near-term supply moderation. Asking rents returned to positive annual growth of 1.7%, driven by advanced manufacturing buildings and a flight-to-quality trend among tenants seeking modern industrial space.
