During the past year there has been a flurry of activity in office real estate. Many developers are starting new projects or busily finishing others. In the Azrieli compound, the new square tower, the last of a trio, is going up. A 70-story office/residential tower is planned where the Elite factory used to be, while more high-rise buildings are being built, or being planned, along the Ayalon highway in the Petah Tikva Industrial Zone and in the Herzliya hi-tech industrial area.
But despite the flurry of activity experts believe that by the end of the year there will be a shortage of 400,000 meters of office space in the Tel Aviv metropolitan area.
