STAMFORD, CT—In Fairfield County, leasing during the first quarter outpaced that seen over the last quarter of 2014, rising 47% to 887,414 square feet. This was higher than the five-year historical average and is seen as a marker of increased tenant confidence, this according to a report from CBRE’s Westchester and Fairfield County offices.

The largest deal in the county for the quarter was Synchrony Financial’s 312,000 square feet at 777 Long Ridge Road in Stamford. The CBD and non-CBD contributed the largest volume of returns to the overall market. Partly as a result of these returns, there was 232,395 square feet of negative absorption in the county during the quarter, CBRE says.
