Planning & Development
What is Stacking Plan?
A stacking plan is a floor-by-floor diagram of how departments, tenants, or functions distribute vertically through a building. Where a test fit answers one floor, a stack answers the whole building: who goes where, and how much space each group gets.
In practice
Corporate real estate teams use stacking studies for consolidations and moves; developers use them to plan multi-tenant leasing. Space-planning platforms generate and compare stacks from program data.
