The Warsaw office market gathered significant momentum in the second quarter of 2026. Gross take-up hit approximately 282,800 sqm, marking the third-highest quarterly volume on record. Meanwhile, development activity remained at an all-time low, with prime office availability shrinking rapidly, according to Cushman & Wakefield.
This robust occupier activity halfway through the year signals sustained, strong demand for office space in Warsaw. Traditionally, the highest leasing volumes have been recorded in the third and fourth quarters. At present, demand is colliding with constrained new supply, particularly in central locations,”
says Vitalii Arkhypenko, Research Analyst, Cushman & Wakefield.
New supply fails to offset dwindling office stock
The return to the office boosts occupier activity
The office is regaining its role as a place for collaboration, fostering organisational culture and attracting talent. However, companies are not returning to pre-pandemic workplace models. Instead, they are seeking efficient, flexible and well-connected offices that make the commute worthwhile for employees,”
adds Piotr Capiga, Senior Leasing and Business Development Manager, Cushman & Wakefield.
