These industries excel in the Boston area due to its high concentration of knowledge workers and its spirit of innovation and entrepreneurship. Tenant In-Migration The biggest trend impacting Boston recently has been the large-scale relocations of tenants into the urban core — both from within and outside of the market. This is a trend that shows little signs of slowing down. • GE — …
