The amount of empty office space is climbing in Montgomery and Prince George’s counties, as it drops in Northern Virginia, reflecting where the region’s job growth is concentrated.

At the end of June, 14.3 percent of suburban Maryland’s office space was vacant, the same portion of the market that was empty at the end of June last year, according to Alexandria commercial real estate firm Delta Associates. That number is expected to rise to 14.8 percent by the end of June 2014.
