    Inside Industrial: Why Small-Bay Demands Discipline

    Small-bay industrial continues to post tighter fundamentals than larger warehouse formats. Buildings under 100,000 square feet recorded an average vacancy rate of 4.9 percent in the fourth quarter of 2025, about half the rate for larger facilities, according to BKM Capital Partners’ latest Light Industrial Market Update. Spaces under 50,000 square feet also accounted for 80 percent of industrial leasing activity during the quarter. In the fourth episode of Inside Industrial, Brett Turner, senior managing director of acquisitions & dispositions at BKM Capital Partners, joined CPE’s Diana Firtea to discuss what is driving that divide, how automation and advanced manufacturing are changing tenant demand and why success in small-bay depends on more than access to capital. Turner said small-bay differs from big-box industrial because supply remains limited and many tenants are established businesses tied to domestic demand. Automation, data centers and advanced manufacturing are also supporting demand for flexible, smaller spaces. Operating those portfolios is labor-intensive. BKM expects to complete about 1,000 leases this year, which Turner said gives experienced operators an advantage as institutional capital enters the segment. He also stressed the need to remain disciplined on basis, particularly as high construction costs make new development difficult to justify.

    Step Into My Office: Orange County’s Tale of Two Markets

    Orange County’s office market is moving from correction to recalibration. While the sector is still navigating the effects of right-sizing and post-pandemic occupancy shifts, CBRE’s latest report points to a market that is gradually finding its footing. With vacancy remaining relatively steady at 13.3 percent and negative net absorption narrowing compared to the first quarter, Orange County appears to be moving closer to balance. In this episode of Step Into My Office, CPE’s Olivia Bunescu talks with Allison Kelly, senior vice president at CBRE, about what is driving Orange County’s office market now. Kelly discusses stabilizing fundamentals, the Greater Airport Area, the split between long-term owners and new high-net-worth buyers, institutional capital’s hesitation and why Class A assets continue to outperform older commodity buildings. For Kelly, Orange County’s next phase will be defined less by a broad office rebound and more by how each property is positioned within a market where stability, redevelopment and flight to quality are all happening at once. Here’s what they discussed: Orange County’s stabilizing office fundamentals (01:30)The market’s recovery is rooted in occupier diversity (03:03)Which tenants are driving demand? (05:05)From negative absorption to a positive trajectory (07:39)Submarkets leading leasing momentum (08:34)A tale of two ownership structures (10:44)Why institutional capital remains hesitant on office (15:10)Spec suites and move-in-ready space gain traction (17:22)Class A assets outperform, as older buildings seek new uses (20:35)What’s on top of the list for occupiers? (22:27)Stability, growth and redevelopment ahead (25:16)

    Sustainability Street: Is Nuclear Energy the Answer?

    Welcome back to Sustainability Street, CPE’s podcast on the intersection of commercial real estate and the world we live in. For this episode, I'm talking about nuclear energy with Jon Lemmond, growth lead for sustainable operations, smart building services and energy engineering for real estate management services at JLL. There is a push to bring nuclear energy back into the mainstream power landscape. Its return would ease energy concerns and siting constraints for the fast-growing data center business and heavy industrial users. "If we can build nucler in a cost efficient way, once it's built, that's a huge amount of base loand that should then help us site more, build more and then also help minimize the cost increases from energy usage," Lemmond told me. But nuclear has sustainability downsides as well, and, Lemmond explained, its complex history has created a patchwork regulatory framework that will make progress difficult. Here are some highlights from our conversation:(02:26) Making of an energy expert(05:51) The federal push for nuclear(09:51) Nuclear and siting capability(15:08) A nation divided on nuclear(19:28) Shifting public opinion(20:48) Sustainability upsides/downsides(25:50) Elsewhere in energy innovation(30:41) For further information

    Commercial Design Lab: Charles Bloszies on What Makes Building Conversions Work

    Office-to-residential conversions continue to dominate conversations across commercial real estate, but not every building is a good candidate for adaptive reuse. From floor plate configurations and structural systems to government incentives and seismic upgrades, successful conversions depend on a complex mix of architectural, technical and financial considerations. In the latest episode of Commercial Design Lab, San Francisco-based architect and structural engineer Charles Bloszies joined CPE's Beata Lorincz to discuss the realities of adaptive reuse, drawing on nearly four decades of experience working on rehabilitation, urban infill and conversion projects.
