Renting Retail Space in Kearny Mesa
Kearny Mesa is San Diego’s "Logistics and Central Service" powerhouse. The submarket is benefiting from a massive shift toward Industrial Adaptive Reuse. A key move for 2026 is the transformation of the Spectrum Tech Center into the Spectrum Logistics Center, featuring a rare 3.7-acre outdoor storage yard tailored for the city's surging logistics needs (Source: Kidder Mathews Industrial Report Q3 2025). 2026 is the year of "Zoning-Driven Infill." Following the CEQA entitlement approvals in early 2025, Kearny Mesa is seeing a wave of redevelopments for cold storage, battery energy storage systems (BESS), and last-mile distribution. Its central location at the "center of the county" makes it the most desirable submarket for service-oriented commercial users who require proximity to both the North County and South Bay demographics (Source: Kearny Real Estate Projects / Matthews CRE).
