The Woodlands office market continues to struggle due to low oil prices, though it is faring better than most of Houston. Vacancy increased in Q2 2016 to 11.4% due to a new 240,000 square foot Class A building delivering fully vacant. While there is over 1.7 million square feet of vacant space, only five buildings can accommodate tenants needing 100,000 square feet or more, comprising 3.6% of Houston-wide large space availability. Rental rates are declining for Class B space as vacancy rises.
