One of the
more important things you should realize when comparing these two choices is
the concept of what is called a "Loss Factor". Simply
put the "Loss Factor" is the amount of Suites in a Executive
used by such things as the hallways, closets, columns, storage area, bathrooms,
reception area, to an extent conference rooms* etc.. This Suites is included
in the total amount of square footage but in most cases is not considered "useable."
The loss factor in the Manhattan Area is 20%*.
A Example would be if a company rents a 500 square foot traditional Short Term Office Space.
There loss factor is 100 square feet (500 x .20 = 100)
This means that the total usable square footage is 400 square feet.
In an Short Term Office Space environment there is NO Loss Factor and no need
to maintain or furnish that Suites. This is one of the many reasons why when
comparing the two choices one must not simply compare on a PRICE PER SQUARE
FOOT basis. Manhattan
