From the September issue: Call it the incredible shrinking workplace: New York’s sputtering economy is pushing companies to design offices that are extremely cost-effective, making the most out of every inch of space. As a result, white-collar professionals are working in tighter quarters. While the allotment of office space per worker has been shrinking for some time, in the last year the average space allocation dipped significantly, to 100 square feet per person in the New York market, compared to about 120 square feet in 2007, according to CoreNet Global, a nonprofit that tracks trends in real estate.
