The Square, Hines’ flexible workplace platform, The Square, will open its first New York City location at 205 Hudson in Hudson Square this summer. This marks The Square’s sixth location globally, with additional locations in Washington, D.C., Houston, Salt Lake City and Mexico City. Taking over the former WeWork space, The Square will occupy nearly 63,000 square feet.
205 Hudson is part of the Hudson Square Properties portfolio, a joint venture of Trinity Church Wall Street, Norges Bank Investment Management and Hines, consisting of 13 office buildings across approximately six million square feet of commercial space.
“There is a universal shift towards greater flexibility, across small businesses to large enterprises, and we are leading the way in redefining new products that cater to our clients’ needs beyond traditional long-term leases,” said Annie Draper, director of workplace services at Hines. “As the office model continues to transform in today’s dynamic world of work, and with each company operating in different ways, the demand for a diverse array of workspace options becomes increasingly essential.”
Designed for the modern occupier, The Square will offer on-demand meeting rooms and office space at 205 Hudson Street that are bookable by the hour, day, week or month. Spaces include Enterprise suites, large, fully customizable for suites of teams of 25 and more with private offices, meeting rooms and amenity spaces; private offices and flex suites for teams from one to 25 and on-demand meeting rooms and office spaces. Members gain access to common spaces, private phone booths, state-of-the-art technology, and food and beverage.
The Square at 205 Hudson can accommodate over 700 people spread across offices and suites, including 12 conference rooms that can be booked by non-members. Members will have access to building amenities across the Hudson Square portfolio, including an expansive rooftop with views of Manhattan, and lounge and event spaces. They will also gain access to The Square’s network of collaboration and office spaces.
