Offices

Landlords, tenants prep for new normal

Removing furniture. Reducing the number of workstations. Alternating workdays or staggering start times. Queuing elevators.

While health and government authorities have made recommendations, tenants and landlords are working on how to best create a safe environment when people return to the office.
