SOMERS, NY—GlobeSt.com exclusively has confirmed that IBM is planning to relocate its workforce at its complex here to its North Castle headquarters by the spring of 2017 and put the multi-building 1.2-million-square-foot complex up for sale.
The company also plans to undertake capital improvements to modernize its original corporate headquarters building—known as IBM North Castle—of approximately 420,000 square feet in connection with the space consolidation program. The North Castle headquarter office is adjacent to the technology company's existing headquarters building in Armonk, which is less than 300,000 square feet in size.
“IBM is transforming the company to meet the needs of a changing world and the emerging needs of our clients. As a result, IBM is transforming the way our teams work as we become a cognitive solutions and cloud platform company,” says IBM Doug Shelton. “That's why we will be moving all our employees in Somers, many of whom work in solitary offices, to modern, open work spaces at our facility in North Castle by March 2017.”
