Lee & Associates: Tariffs Add to Q1 Industrial Challenges; All Sectors See Constrained Development

by Sarah Daniels

The end of the first quarter of 2025 saw market uncertainty in the face of new U.S. trade and tariff policies combined with an unclear geopolitical outlook, according to Lee & Associates’ 2025 Q1 North America Market Report. The effect of these concerns within the commercial real estate world are most evident in the industrial sector, which is also contending with oversupply and softening rent growth. Development is slow across property types. Retail, despite high-profile store closures in early 2025, remains historically tight on space as years of underbuilding keep availabilities near record lows. Office demand has stabilized in several major metros following years of contraction, though vacancy remains elevated. The pipeline of new construction is both drying up and favoring new types of tenants beyond traditional office spaces. Multifamily is seeing strong tenant demand in certain markets despite a flood of new deliveries. Lee & Associates has made their full market report available here (click through for detailed breakdowns and city-by-city information). The information below for the industrial, office, retail and multifamily sectors offers clarity on market-wide demand, rent growth trends and challenges likely to shape trajectories throughout 2025.

Commanders and District of Columbia Announce New Stadium, Mixed-Use Development, Team Pledges $2.7B Investment

by Taylor Williams

WASHINGTON, D.C. — The NFL’s Washington Commanders have announced plans to develop a new football stadium in Washington, D.C., (“the District”), as well as a surrounding mixed-use destination. The team, which currently plays at FedEx Field in Landover, Md., has pledged to invest at least $2.7 billion into financing the project. The District has committed to a $500 million investment for the new stadium, which is expected to open in 2030. The site spans 180 acres within the Robert Francis Kennedy (RFK) campus on the city’s east side. The Commanders, formerly known as the Redskins, are developing the new 65,000-seat stadium in partnership with the District, which recently gained control of the campus via the D.C. Robert F. Kennedy Memorial Stadium Campus Revitalization Act. The legislation, which took effect in January, gave the District the ability to develop the campus for a mix of uses, lifting the restrictions that were in place under the previous lease. The legislation also required that 30 percent of the RFK campus be reserved for parks, trails and open space, not including a 32-acre riparian area along the Anacostia River. As part of the larger development, the Commanders plan to bring a variety of commercial …
