He has seen all facets of the office market, and said Miami, which experienced robust growth during the pandemic, has been able to maintain a healthy demand ever since.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt&#8217;s still a very attractive market for a couple of different types of tenants, including large domestic enterprises, Latin American companies that are looking to build a U.S. presence and local startups \u2014 a very thriving scene across all of South Florida,\u201d DeMarinis said.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>WeWork&#8217;s footprint has increased by 6% in Miami since the start of the year, and the company expects this momentum to stay consistent going forward, he said. Additionally, Miami tour bookings for WeWork have increased 21% year-over-year, further indicating growth opportunities in the market.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>WeWork\u2019s members span every industry, from tech and legal services to finance, which allows DeMarinis to get a more complete picture of what local tenants want.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe have a very diverse member base, which enables us to respond directly to a wide range of local demand,\u201d he said. \u201cLast year, for example, we opened a new coworking floor at WeWork Southeast Financial Center in Miami. This was in direct response to the specific demand we saw in the Downtown Miami market.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>A City Of Submarkets\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>There are several distinct submarkets in the Miami market, all with their own unique attractions and attributes, DeMarinis said. WeWork has a presence in many of these key markets, including Brickell, Downtown Miami, Coral Gables and Wynwood, with each property designed to suit the market\u2019s needs.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEach submarket in Miami continues to see noticeable demand, especially the submarkets that we&#8217;re positioned in,\u201d DeMarinis said. \u201cAll of our locations\u2019 attributes are very intentionally distinct and unique to those submarkets.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>WeWork\u2019s Brickell City Centre office is desirable for tenants thanks to its walkable location near a large concentration of restaurants and shopping options, he said. Meanwhile, WeWork\u2019s Coral Gables location, its closest to the Miami Airport, is in a planned community with modern, sophisticated design and a bit more space and land and lower density than a location such as Brickell, DeMarinis said. In both communities, WeWork has spaces that feature outdoor terraces, which have been very popular with tenants.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>In Downtown Miami, the professional services, financial services and legal-related companies that populate the area are looking for prebuilt interior offices with amazing views. WeWork\u2019s Southeast Financial Center location was designed to meet these particular demands, DeMarinis\u00a0said.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt was very important for us to be in an iconic tower like Southeast Financial Center, a beautiful building with great amenities nearby,\u201d he said. \u201cIn the office itself, we have upgraded products with enhanced acoustics and sit-stand desks in addition to great natural light coming in through the bay windows. This is a product that was intentionally built for what tenants in that submarket are looking for.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>In Wynwood, he said, there are more startups and tech, media and advertising companies, and WeWork provides the boutique environment that tenant mix wants.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Companies Want Flexible Space For Longer\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>WeWork is seeing increased demand across all of its locations from enterprise and\u00a0artificial intelligence companies of all sizes, DeMarinis said. These companies are looking for the same amount of flexibility that startups and small companies historically sought from WeWork. Specifically, they want on-demand space on flexible terms, he said.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>WeWork is also seeing its tenants stay for longer terms, particularly in the Miami market, suggesting that long-held views toward flexible workspace are changing in the face of new tenant demands. WeWork, he said, is ready to meet these demands.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere used to be a view that coworking or flex options were temporary,\u201d DeMarinis said. \u201cYou would go and get space quickly and leave in a short period of time. We&#8217;re now seeing companies with flexible terms stay upwards of three, five or even 10 years. I believe this trend will continue to grow, and we will be here, growing with it.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>This article was produced in collaboration between WeWork and Studio B.
