STV is celebrating the official unveiling of its new cutting-edge headquarters in the “World’s Most Famous Building,” the Empire State Building.
This state-of-the-art office in the heart of New York City combines forward-thinking technology with collaborative, activity-based spaces. The new environment serves as a physical embodiment of STV’s strategic goals to reimagine how the organization works and invest in its people.
“I see potential in every corner of this new space, from the Innovation Lab upstairs to the new meeting spaces for us to come together and collaborate,” said STV’s CEO Greg Kelly, P.E. ” This move is about our employees and what they are doing at STV. It’s about giving them a space to do their best work.”
The space integrates an Activity Based Working (ABW) office concept that provides employees with different environments catered to different types of work. The mix of spaces are designed to enhance collaboration and engagement among team members, as well as STV’s clients and partners.
STV’s new office space by the numbers:
- 2 floors (10th floor and part of the 11th)
- A 19 foot x 6.5 foot video wall (made up of 60 individual panels)
- 66 other digital signage screens
- 513 workpoints across the two floors
- 16 meeting spaces
- 1 Maker Lab with two 3-D printers
- 1 Innovation Lab equipped with VR headsets and other interactive technologies
- 255 speakers to reduce ambient noise
- 5 miles of cable deployed for AV systems
- Range of amenity rooms (prayer, lactation and wellness rooms)
Kelly was joined by STV Chairman Dominick Servedio, P.E., Chief Administrative Officer Anita Macaluso and Corporate Real Estate Director Rhonda Thomas, as well as several members of its leadership team at the ribbon-cutting ceremony.
During the ceremony, staff had an opportunity to explore the workspace and its Innovation Lab, which features a virtual reality ecosystem that can be utilized to enhance communication, elevate the design process and leverage visualization so clients can experience STV projects under development.
“This is a fresh, modern workspace designed to inspire creativity, partnership and productivity,” Kelly said. “This is more than just an office. It’s a dynamic environment where ideas will flow freely, and innovation will thrive.”
