SAN DIEGO—San Diego can satisfy the demand for quality office space long term “without a doubt,” since the city’s lifestyle of work hard/play hard has put companies on the world platform as a hub to have their businesses located here, JLL‘s senior research analyst Patrick Ashton tells GlobeSt.com.

Northrop Grumman and MedImpact have been expanding, driving most of the office demand in the large-headquarters office sector.
