The New Office Views

I should probably have done this ages ago.. say, when we moved in over 2 months ago. But anyway. We moved our office upstairs from our temporary home on Floor 30 of 7 World Trade Center, with our view over the Twin Towers site and 9/11 memorial. We swapped it for Floor 46, our own home, and a view across to Brooklyn and way up Midtown. I think you'll agree the views are ridiculous.

Here's most of Manhattan:

With the Empire State Building in the centre, as it should be really:

Across to Brooklyn:

And to Jersey:

And our Emmy Award is looking pretty nice against such a huge city backdrop:

Unfortunately, we had to move onto the floor as soon as it was habitable. Whilst the construction team have done a really good job with the ceiling, we have been trying to complete the "industrial feel" of the place with a polished concrete floor... but it has been messed up more times than we can count. We have some desks, and the glass separators for the meeting room and kitchen areas are in, but we can't finish the job - putting up TV screens, installing desks and lunch areas - until the floor is ready. Nevertheless, here's a sneak preview:

When it is all fully kitted out, I'm sure there will be a new post! Until then, enjoy the views. I certainly do!

  1. Just as you had in London you have some pretty dramatic views of New York.
    I'm sure the office will look a lot better when you get all your TV screens and gizmos in place.
    that Emmy needs to be put in a safe place, she might fall out the window!!
