Nike Unveils Stunning New York City Headquarters

Nike opened a stunning new New York Head Quarters. Housing an integrated design studio, and covering nearly 150,000 square feet across six floors at 855 Avenue of the Americas. The new Nike NYHQ represents part of a global initiative to add resources in influential sport and style hubs.

The interior of Nike New York Head Quarters has been designed to facilitate creativity and collaboration through open-plan, freestyle work spaces. Meeting areas include a VW van — a tribute to the original van from which Bill Bowerman and Jeff Johnson would distribute Nike shoes at track meets in the company’s early days. Several conference rooms feature custom ceiling tiles, designed by Miniwiz, which are also made from recycled materials. A roof terrace (complete with plants in the shape of the Nike swoosh), allows for open-air meetings and relaxation. Food is served from a food truck housed in the building.

Nike New York Head Quarters also has a 4,000-square-foot indoor basketball court, complete with seating for 400. The space will host local leagues, high school teams and community partners, and is also available for Nike staff.
