Over on the leasing side, the office sector in the DC region found itself in the midst of a solid bounce back in 2015, with vacancy rates heading towards single-digit territory in several submarkets. On the individual deal front, the area of NoMa landed itself quite a prize when the Department of Justice signed on for 839k SF to occupy two full buildings at Three and Four Constitution Square (Cushman & Wakefield's Darian LeBlanc, a power broker winner, was in on that deal). There is a world of talent in DC’s office leasing sector as well, with the below brokers reaching the top of the class as 2015’s Top Office Leasing Brokers.
