How the Alliance’s Economic Development Team Tracks the Health of Lower Manhattan’s Real Estate Market 

It’s our 30th anniversary, and we’re self-celebrating. Over the next few months, we’ll be rolling out 30 stories about 30 of our biggest accomplishments, including everything from our daily public safety and sanitation work, to our small business outreach, to how we helped the neighborhood navigate challenges and even tragedies. You’ll be able to find these stories on our website, as well as in our weekly newsletter, which you can subscribe to here. 

For the last 25 years of our 30, the Downtown Alliance’s economic development team has been releasing in-depth research on what’s happening in the neighborhood’s real estate market. Our team has compiled and published quarterly research reports outlining updates on real estate decision making in Lower Manhattan including commercial leasing trends, residential and hotel developments, retail openings and other significant capital improvements occurring throughout the neighborhood.

Through street surveys and data analysis, we’ve provided neighborhood-specific statistics on larger conversations that have included pandemic recovery, return to office, office worker satisfaction, downtown commuting, bike infrastructure, residential demographics, pedestrian counts and more since ADNY was founded. Thanks to our extensive data collection, we’re also the go-to resource for local reporters, brokers, developers and others interested in keeping tabs on and investing in Lower Manhattan’s robust real estate industry.
