Cooley was excited to announce their move to a new office in New York City. The law firm signed a lease at 55 Hudson Yards.

This new location puts the firm at the center of the largest private real estate development in US history and the biggest development in New York City since Rockefeller Center. Joining them in the building will be some of the biggest names in business and technology.

Chief Executive Officer Joe Conroy said, “Becoming part of this visionary new development further reinforces our commitment to investment and growth in New York. We will be working alongside many of our clients and look forward to joining them in a stunning new environment that will be among the world’s most sophisticated law firm office spaces.”

Cooley will be taking over a 130,000 square foot, five-floor spot near the top of the building. They will have over 250 employees working in the office space.

Partner in charge Jonathan Bach added, “We’re excited to serve our clients out of this cutting-edge space. This move is in line with our commitment to East Coast growth and speaks to the vibrancy of New York across the corporate, finance and tech sectors and more.”

Hudson Yards will have over 18 million square feet of commercial and residential space, including over 100 shops and a number of restaurants. There will be around 4,000 residences, 14 acres of public open space, an Equinox-branded luxury hotel, a 750-seat public school, and a center for artistic invention.

President of Related Hudson Yards Jay Cross stated, “The unprecedented commercial leasing effort at Hudson Yards has attracted over 6.4 million square feet of occupancy by some of the world’s leading businesses and we are thrilled to welcome Cooley to the neighborhood. Cooley is well regarded as a forward-thinking and innovative law firm and its new park front NYC headquarters in this amenity-rich neighborhood is an ideal fit for their culture, employees and future talent.”
