The headquarters offers 150,000 sf of flexible office space and provides the company with room to grow its business and attract the best new talent. Building amenities include a state-of-the-art fitness center, an on-location kids room for children visiting the office, bike storage, a 2,300-sf balcony, and a 19,000-sf roof deck complete with a dining area and art installations. The project is also in close proximity to Assembly Row’s abundant dining, shopping, and health and wellness benefits.
