Partnership. Performance.
A poor performance by Toronto West more than negated a decent showing by Toronto North and East, leaving the overall suburban market in negative
absorption territory for the year. Though the suburbs had their share of headline deals during the year, demand has not kept pace with consistent
deliveries of new product, mostly in Toronto West, which accounted for 97% of completions and 50% of under-construction space at year-end. Suburban
availability (14.3%) and vacancy (13.7%) rates mirrored those of one year earlier. Toronto North ended the quarter and year with single-digit availability
and vacancy, while Toronto West and East wallowed in double-digit territory. Despite its woes, investor interest in the suburbs has not waned as several
assets sold (30 & 38 Leek Crescent/95 Mural St., 2655 Bristol Circle and 155 Gordon Baker Rd.) or are currently for sale (Allstate Corporate Centre).
