2022 March Life Sciences Update

New York

Market Summary • New York City (NYC) is a rapidly growing recipient of life sciences investment capital, with venture capital funding climbing to $6.2 billion in 2021, a 52.6% increase over 2020. • Investors and developers worldwide continue to grow their presence in NYC as it has one of the most educated and diverse talent pools in the nation along with first class academic and medical institutions and premier venture capital ecosystems. • The life sciences industry has steadily expanded its footprint in NYC over the past several years with state and city incentives continuing to encourage developers to build labs for medical research. In 2021, the city government announced a doubling of its investment into the sector—$1 billion—to accelerate its growth: $430 million for new laboratory and incubator construction; $450 million for non-profit facilities; and $20 million for internship programs and start-up ventures. • NYC is continuing to expand its life sciences presence with 2.6 msf expected to be delivered within the next five years, including Alexandria Center’s North Tower, Deerfield’s 325,000 sf redevelopment of 345 Park Avenue South, and Taconic Partners’ 399,000 sf redevelopment of 125 West End Avenue.
