MINNEAPOLIS—Lindquist & Vennum, LLP, which moved into the iconic IDS Center when the property opened 43 years ago, has just extended its lease and plans to create an 81,000 square foot workplace designed to foster greater client service through increased communication, collaboration and community, according to its managing partner. In doing so, the firm will be using strategies for office design that have swept through many US office users, but that law firms have been slower to adopt.

“We are happy that we will continue to call the IDS Center Lindquist's home – we've been here since the property opened,” Dennis O'Malley, Lindquist's managing partner, tells GlobeSt.com. “I'm also proud of the new office design we're working on, which will allow us serve our clients more efficiently through new collaborative spaces, enhanced technology and a bright, clean design.”

Lindquist will relocate its roughly 300 Minneapolis attorneys and staff from 120,000 square feet on floors 40 to 44 onto floors 18 through 21, a spokesperson also tells GlobeSt.com. The move will take place in November 2016.
