The project at 2915 Jorie Blvd. will consist of open workstations, 150 conference rooms, 12 cafes and a variety of collaboration spaces and amenities. Originally built in the 1970s and designed by Dirk Lohan, grandson of famed architect Mies van der Rohe, the campus consists of three buildings on more than 80 acres.
