CNBC mentioned the irony of the new construction. Prices started to firm several years ago so developers bought properties at a discount and planned new construction. As you could expect, the new projects are now coming on-line just as commercial market prices are again collapsing. A new round of losses and new record lows for commercial property. Maybe by the time they finish they'll be facing a 99% loss in property values.
