TA B L E O F C O N T E N T S

EACH YEAR IN THE GRAHAM REPORT WE HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO OFFER COMMENTS ON

trends and patterns and to express an opinion on what went right and what went wrong.

In considering appropriate remarks here, we went back and looked at our topics of the last

three years. In the January 2008 column, we crowed on the positive and robust nature

of our local economy. In January 2009, we had to eat crow as the realities of the crash

of September 2008 unfolded. Last year at this time, we were beginning to see signs of

recovery. Our prediction of “recovery in sight” was accurate, partly. This year’s theme is

aptly titled, “Same song, second verse” — although we see signs of the recovery all around

us, the commercial real estate market still fi nds itself picking its way through a minefi eld of

excess capacity, pricing pressures, and lack of job growth.

Credit markets remain tight, and loan to value ratios appear to be trending to levels that

predate our careers. Interest rates still remain attractively low, and deals take more equity,

which is probably a good thing. For those owners who resisted the pressure to sell or lease

at the depressed rates of the past two years, they now have a chance to ride this one out,

and to plan rather than react. Economic indicators point to modest increases in rents and

demand. The recovery is still in sight.

HUNTSVILLE INDUSTRIAL MARKET OVERVIEW

2011 [ 21.1 MILLION SF TOTAL ]

SINGLE TENANT 15,929,978 SF

MULTI-TENANT 5,214,890 SF

Industrial Market Overview

INDUSTRIAL: Th e Huntsville industrial market vacancy rate increased to 11.59% in 2010. Th is rate is an increase over the 2009 year-end vacancy rate of 9% and substantially higher than the year-end vacancy rate of 4.51% in 2008.

Th e Huntsville vacancy rate still remains well below the national industrial average of 14%. Th e national vacancy rate appears to have peaked in the 2nd quarter of 2010 and actually dropped 10 basis points in the 3rd quarter of 2010. Th is was the fi rst decline in three years and forecasts are calling for a continued decrease in the rate to 13.1% in 2011 and 11.8% in 2012.

2010 marked the fi rst time in at least six years that the Huntsville market has experienced negative ab-sorption. Th e sharp increase in vacancy rate and the negative absorption are due in large part to several plants closing recently in the Huntsville area.

New construction in the industrial sector was extremely low as developers worked to backfi ll the 500,000 sf of speculative industrial space that was introduced into the market in 2009.

Th is lack of new product in the area’s industrial inventory should quickly translate to decreasing vacancy rates once demand increases.

Industrial Announcements of Note:

• Raytheon announced plans to build a missile pro-duction facility on Redstone Arsenal. Th e company plans to assemble and test the Standard Missile 3 and Standard Missile 6 at the 70,000 sf facility. Once complete, the missile facility will create 300 jobs. • Continental Automotive closed its 850,000 sf plant.• The Delphi Saginaw Steering System plant located in Athens, AL closed its plant in June 2009. • Plans are still on pace to start production in the summer of 2011 at Huntsville’s Toyota plant for its four-cylinder motor. Th e expansion will bring its annual engine production capacity to more than 500,000. Over 10,000 applications were received for the 250 available new jobs.

BRAC Update

Job Growth

Th e 2005 Base Realignment and Closure (BRAC) project is responsible for bringing thousands of new jobs to Redstone Arsenal and is scheduled for com-pletion in September 2011. Th us far about 2,900 of the 4,700 new jobs have been fi lled.

Th e job growth related to BRAC should continue, especially in the off -post contractor support fi eld. Th is expected increase in the indirect job category should bring 15,000 new positions to Huntsville and the surrounding area. Since the year 2000, the Huntsville area has led the State of Alabama with a net job growth of 24,200 positions.

Th is rise in job growth has prompted the need for additional offi ce space in the vicinity of Redstone Arsenal. Redstone Gateway, an Enhanced Use Lease (EUL) multi-use project, will create over 4 million sf of offi ce, retail, academic and entertainment space. Th e project, a partnership between Corporate Offi ce Properties Trust and Jim Wilson and Associates, will encompass 468 acres of land at Redstone Ar-senal’s entrance.

Retail Market Overview

KROGER MARKETPLACEThe new 100,000 sf Kroger Marketplace is the

retail centerpiece of Watercress Green, a new

mixed-use development.


HUNTSVILLE RETAIL MARKET OVERVIEW

RETAIL: According to National Real Estate Investor more than 7 million sf of retail projects slated for com-pletion in 2010 across the United States were delayed or cancelled. Th is pullback in construction resulted in only 4.1 million sf of retail space coming on line, the lowest fi gure for annual deliveries in 30 years. Th is vast reduction of retail construction partnered with an upswing in consumer spending caused the national retail vacancy rates to slightly decrease in 2010. U.S. retail spending is expected to continue its rise in 2011. Average rents on retail space decreased 3.4% in 2010. However, lease rates should stabilize in 2011, with an estimated nominal drop of 0.3%.

With little new retail product coming on line in 2010, the Huntsville market vacancy rate decreased from 11.11% in 2009 to 10.8% in 2010. Th is drop in vacancy can be largely attributed to the back fi lling of several large box vacancies in west Huntsville.

With income levels and job growth numbers that outperform the national market, the Huntsville area looks to be a place of positive momentum for retail growth beginning in 2011. Recent announcements of several new developments support this expected growth, as well as the previously vacant large box space being leased by national tenants along the Uni-versity Drive/Highway 72 corridor.

2010 Activity:

• A new 100,000 sf Kroger Marketplace opened late 2010 at Watercress Green. Th e Kroger store is the retail centerpiece of the 86-acre mixed-use de-velopment at the corner of Jeff Road and Highway 72 West.• A new 14,700 sf neighborhood center opened in Hampton Cove. Located at the intersection of High-way 431 and Sutton Road, the center is anchored by American Family Care and BancorpSouth Bank.• Aft er backfi lling the former Circuit City space with EarthFare, Huntsville Plaza continued its come-back with leasing space to Powerhouse Fitness and Jo-Ann Fabrics and Crafts. • Big Lots opened a new 28,500 sf store in the Tar-get anchored Westside Center on University Drive.
