Chris Levy, President and CEO, Pursuit
I think the beauty of the space is you walk in, you really know what we're all about right away. We've had multiple people that come in and just wowed by the space. They want to work here, they want to continue to work here. And the feedback we've gotten has been incredible.Todd Stevens, Principal, Cresa
I think people want to come to a place where they were invested in by their company and this space is reflective of that. Pursuit brought us in to help take their old tired space that wasn't supporting the company that they wanted to be and flip it on its head and turn it into a space that was gonna support who they were gonna be into the future and we were able to do that for them.Zac Conley, Managing Principal, Cresa
Pursuit really benefited from our full suite of services. Our workplace strategists are there early to help the client really understand what their needs are for the headquarters and for us to really understand what works and what doesn't work about where they are today and what they want out of their future space. And once it's designed, our project managers are there to oversee like a conductor of an orchestra, really oversee the design and construction project as well as the relocation and furniture procurement. We're there on day one when Pursuit was first trying to figure out we have this headquarters thing we need to deal with how are we going to go after it to the day they move in and they're operating in the space from strategy to implementation.Owens Burns, Executive Vice President, CFO, Pursuit
The value that Cresa provided throughout this process was invaluable and probably immeasurable.
You know, there was a lot of intentional design to the space to promote collaborative efforts, even so much as the workstations that you've seen here today with the lower walls and stuff like that, to see people just leaning over the wall, chatting amongst themselves as a team.
Chris Levy
So as CEO of the company, one of the big things that I promote is engagement, collaboration and creating a community. And this space has really enabled us to do that. We have conference spaces, we have community spaces. It really brings people together, makes them work better, more efficiently, and all those are all the things that I'm looking for out of my staff so that we can continue to grow and evolve our business.
Owen Burns
So our new office space here, our new corporate headquarters in Latham, is one of the best things we've ever done for our company, for our staff. Everybody that's coming into this space now certainly feels proud of that effort and hopefully carries that forward in years to come.
