Economy and Operating Environment The key drivers of real estate value are economic growth, translating into rent and occupancy growth, and cost of capital, translating into return expectations and valuation. In 2014, six years after the fi nancial crisis, the U.S. economy exhibited reasonable strength. GDP growth was 2.4% and the un- employment rate dropped to under 6%. Commodity markets, most importantly oil prices, have weakened markedly. However, the U.S. economy is diverging from the rest of the world, most of which is experiencing declining growth and infl ation, as well as material fi scal intervention resulting in unprecedented lower interest rates outside the U.S.

Through the land use regula- tory technique formally known as "incentive zoning," cities grant private real estate developers the legal right to disregard zoning restric- tions in return for their voluntary agreement to provide urban design features such as plazas, atriums, and parks, and social facilities and services such as affordable housing, day care centers, and job training.

    BOSTON OFFICE MARKET REPORT SECOND QUARTER 2018 NO SIGNS OF SUMMER SLOWDOWN Greater Boston's market showed no signs of weakening during the second quarter by recording strong growth from numerous industry types. The market continued receiving inbound demand as well as converting organic growth into significant expansion. Most notably, Amazon's commitment to nearly 430,000 square feet at Parcel L4 in the Seaport reflects inbound demand while Wayfair's torrid expansion into roughly 395,000 SF in the Back Bay at 222 Berkeley and 500 Boylston Street exemplifies organic growth. The region's demographics and economy have remained solid which has supported and promoted Boston's recent expansion. Firmly rooted in education, technology and life sciences, Boston's diverse economic base has submitted strong job growth through increased recruitment and skilled labor retention from the area’s leading universities and institutions. Looking forward, expect durable market conditions and a diversified economy to guide the region's commercial real estate market to a strong performance over the next several years. 3.5% 3.8% # $2.6B 2ND MAY MAY MA QUARTERLY NATIONALLY IN MASSACHUSETTS NATIONAL VC FUNDING (Q1) QUARTERLY (Q1) UNEMPLOYMENT UNEMPLOYMENT VC FUNDING CLASS A MARKET ASKING RATE VS.

    MEMORANDUM May 22, 2008 TO: MEMBERS, PORT COMMISSION Hon. Kimberly Brandon, President Hon. Rodney Fong Vice President Hon. Ann Lazarus Hon. Michael Hardeman Hon. Stephanie Shakofsky FROM: Monique A. Moyer Executive Director SUBJECT: Informational Presentation on Development Criteria for SWL 351 (The Embarcadero at Washington Street) DIRECTOR’S RECOMMENDATION: Discussion Item, No Action Requested EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Seawall Lot 351 (“SWL 351”) is one of the development opportunities in San Francisco created by removal of the Embarcadero Freeway after the 1989 earthquake. The parcel is a nearly triangular site with a 358-foot frontage along The Embarcadero Roadway with a mere 26-foot frontage on Washington Street. (See Exhibit A, Site Map.) In the context of San Francisco, this 27,937 square foot lot has potential for effective development. At its December 11, 2007 meeting, the Port Commission received an informational presentation by San Francisco Waterfront Partners II, LLC (“SFWP”) of its proposed 8 Washington project, a mixed-use condominium development.1 The proposed project site, as currently conceived, includes a privately owned 2.5 acre property within the Golden Gateway area and the adjacent Port-owned SWL 351 located at Washington Street and The Embarcadero. This unsolicited development proposal has raised questions about the Port’s long-term land use and development plans for SWL 351. The Port’s Waterfront Land Use Plan (“Waterfront Plan”) identifies development parameters and acceptable land uses for SWL 351 and also notes the 1 The Port has not responded to SFWP’s proposal; rather the Port is engaging in a public process before considering any land transaction involving SWL 351.

    Proposal 25% Engineering/Design Services Bruce Freeman Rail Trail SUBMITTED TO Town of Sudbury SUBMITTED BY Vanasse Hangen Brustlin, Inc. OCTOBER 3, 2014 October 3, 2014 Jody Kablack Director of Planning and Community Development Town of Sudbury Flynn Building 278 Old Sudbury Road Sudbury, MA 01776 Re: 25% Engineering/Design Services for the Bruce Freeman Rail Trail Dear Ms. Kablack: The Town of Sudbury has embarked on an important step towards the completion of the 4.6 mile section of the Bruce Freeman Rail Trail that runs through the center of town. The rail corridor extends from South Sudbury near Route 20 to the Sudbury/Concord Town line. To accomplish this, the Town has selected three rms to submit responses for the preparation of a 25% design plan to meet MasssDOT standards. VHB is thankful to be one of the rms selected for this important project and are delighted to have the opportunity to present our qualications, experience and vision to the Town of Sudbury. As a prequalied consultant with MassDOT, VHB is familiar with the agency’s requirements and standards, with a successful record of completing numerous MassDOT-funded multiuse path projects over the past 30 years. Our experience extends from Maine to Florida - from the Acadia Carriage roadways in Maine to the Venice Rail Trail in Sarasota County, Florida. We have worked on historic trails that respect historic places, trails that negotiate sensitive environmental resources, trails with complicated intersections, as well as trails with unique and dynamic abutter concerns. Our multiuse path experience in Massachusetts is especially strong.
