Amazon's second headquarters in Crystal City, Virginia, involved a seven-month public engagement process and two key design goals:

  1. Reject the insular corporate campus model in favor of an open neighborhood serving both employees and community.
  2. Uphold Amazon's climate pledge commitment to meet net-zero carbon by 2040 and 100% renewable energy use by 2030.

You'll be awed by the design team's coup: A welcoming 2.5-acre public park, two 22-story buildings with over 2 million sq. ft. of office space, and 50,000 sq. ft. of retail with a publicly accessible lobby prioritizing small, female- and minority-owned businesses, art installations, and neighborhood connections.
