Amazon.Com Inc (NASDAQ:AMZN) is restarting construction of a 42-story office tower in Bellevue, a Seattle suburb, after halting work on 22 floors since 2022.
The pause in 2022 affected five towers in Bellevue and new offices in Virginia and Nashville as Amazon evaluated the pandemic’s impact on in-office work dynamics.
However, Amazon shifted towards a hybrid work model, requiring employees to be in the office at least three days a week.
By December, the company had already opened half of the Bellevue tower, named “Sonic,” and relocated approximately 1,000 employees there, with plans to accommodate over 4,500 employees upon completion later this year, CNBC reports.
