About Columbia South

Spanning Maple Lawn, North Laurel, and Columbia, the southern portions of Columbia encompass one of the largest clusters of office space throughout Baltimore metro. Boasting selling points such as access to major thoroughfares (Interstate 95, Route 29, Route 100), sizable average office floor plates, ample parking, and a highly educated local workforce, the area is home to several notable employers across many industries.

Along with the notable physical attributes that the area possesses, the southern portion of Columbia can also pose as a cost-savings site in many cases. In fact, compared with nearby downtown Columbia, office space is typically about 10% more affordable. That has been appealing to many office tenants in recent years, as vacated spaces have often been backfilled within a year’s time.

While more commercial development is occurring in the aforementioned downtown Columbia area, southern Columbia is only a few minutes away. Thus, the area has still experienced positive demand for office space, all the while benefiting from the densifying neighborhoods sprouting in Downtown Columbia.
