A turbulent market. That’s how CommercialCafe describes the U.S. industrial sector in its February 2026 national industrial report.
A total of 3.9 million square feet of industrial space was delivered in the Chicago market during the fourth quarter of 2025. That might not seem like a huge number compared to pre-pandemic norms, but it is a significant increase over the 575,466 square feet delivered in the third quarter of last year.
