WeWork has partnered with George Comfort & Sons to convert its 14th floor coworking space at 575 Lexington Avenue into a flexible work lounge. The 15,000-square-foot lounge, opening on July 8, will feature collaboration areas, meeting rooms, an outdoor terrace, and a complimentary barista bar. All building tenants will have free access and receive a monthly events calendar with networking and social programming. 

“Today’s workforce is drawn to buildings that offer flexible workspaces and exceptional service, all in a convenient and accessible location. The WeWork-operated amenity space will help enhance the daily experience of our current tenant base and drive future demand from companies in the market for a high-quality office environment,” said George Comfort & Sons President and CEO Peter S. Duncan. 

Located in the Plaza District, 575 Lexington Avenue is a 35-story, 745,000-square-foot office tower near Grand Central Terminal and multiple subway lines.
