It’s a much larger investment than just adding another 25,000 square feet in New York. New York remains the most important legal market in the U.S., and the U.S. remains the most important legal market in the world.
— Gary Wingens, chair and managing partner of Lowenstein Sandler, in comments given to Reuters on the firm’s decision to expand its New York City office space to 125,000 square feet and renovate its existing space. “[It’s] highly unlikely we’re going back to the style of work and frequency of in-office work we had before the pandemic,” Wingens noted. That said, Lowenstein plans to “completely reimagine” its office space to include single-size offices as well as collaborate workspaces, plus “a new restaurant-style eating space, as well as expanded fitness, health and wellness facilities.” The firm has “indefinitely delayed” its return-to-office plans, previously set for September 6 and October 4, due to the Delta variant.
