About two-thirds of that total involved new leases, the rest renewals and other tenant retention transactions. And more than 915,000 sf of that total involved office deals, with most of the rest flex space. The company's 33.7 million-sf portfolio is currently 92.3% leased.

"Despite what is clearly a challenging economic environment, we're pleased to report strong leasing activity and increased occupancies," says Mack-Cali president and CEO Mitchell Hersh, in a statement. "We're confident that Mack-Cali remains well-poised to navigate through this period, and to capitalize on opportunities as they begin to emerge."
