Within the commercial real estate market, office buildings are generally sorted into Class A, Class B, and Class C properties.  Each individual property is graded based on the comparative qualities of other local properties.  For example, a Class A property in one city may easily be considered a Class C property in a city with a greater variety of office buildings.  Such classifications are location specific and only serve to help those within the commercial real estate market easily identify the quality of an office building within their area.
