Bilt Will Relocate Headquarters to Meatpacking District

Bilt, a housing and neighborhood commerce platform, will establish its new headquarters at Nuveen’s 837 Washington St. in Manhattan’s Meatpacking District under a 15-year lease. The 58,000-square-foot space will be fully renovated to accommodate the company’s growth, creating 625 new jobs while retaining more than 200 existing employees.

“New York City is where Bilt was born, and it’s where we’ll continue to grow,” said founder and CEO Ankur Jain. “This 15-year commitment to the Meatpacking District represents our unwavering belief in New York as the epicenter of innovation and the perfect place to build an American-made platform that connects people to rewarding experiences in their homes and neighborhoods.”

The names and affiliations of brokers representing Bilt and Nuveen were not disclosed. Founded in 2019, Bilt has reached a valuation exceeding $10.75 billion and is on track to process more than $100 billion annually in housing-related spending.
