We’re excited to share that Amazon Hank has received a 2024 SARA NY Design Award, Merit. Congratulations to the entire design and construction team. Adaptive reuse of the historic Lord and Taylor Building takes a deeply-connected piece of urban infrastructure and breathes new life into it, offering a workplace environment for employees. The design team’s thoughtful space planning, imaginative interventions, and the repurposing of old materials ensure this New York City landmark’s enduring appeal.

Inside Amazon’s newest NYC office 👀 In Midtown Manhattan, what once was the home of the department store Lord & Taylor and later WeWork, is now Amazon’s newest office in the Big Apple. The tech giant restored many of the unique architectural features found at one of the first department stores in the country during its years-long renovation and restoration effort. The building, now owned by #Amazon, was designated a landmark in 2007 by the New York City Landmarks Preservation Committee. That means this wasn’t just any office renovation, but one that honored the original design. That includes the naming of the building: Hank, named for the textile industry unit of measurement for yarn. When Amazonians and guests walk throughout the building, they’re met with art inspired by the fashion world, historic structures of a building from 1914, and modern touches and technology. Over 2,000 employees work from this building. Read more: https://buff.ly/3RIfRnB In this piece by Cloey Callahan, we speak to Shaown Nandi, and Jocelyn Bauer of Seneca Group.
