2025 Year in Review: Sandra Tripp, Huntsman Architectural Group

What accomplishment, milestone, project or transaction stood out for you or your firm in 2025? Boutique Building Asset repositioning has grown to represent a significantly larger market share for our New York office, with projects in Hudson Square for Hines and Park Ave. South for Colliers leading the way. These properties offer high-end pre-builts as well as custom spaces on-demand, appealing to both start-ups and more established companies whose use of real estate continues to evolve.

What emerging trends or shifts will shape opportunities for you, your firm, or market sector in 2026? In 2026, we see companies leasing commercial real estate continuing to focus on flexibility when planning their workspace as hiring and growth demands may start to be impacted by AI. Commercial real estate owners and developers will continue to enhance properties with practical amenities and with programming that promotes a sense of community.
