New moves for our DC office

We’re taking the entire 5th floor of 740 15th Street NW, owning the corner of 15th and H Streets NW. It’s classic DC — an old bank turned hotel turned nonprofit-run office space. The details are exquisite — original mosaic tile, exposed brick, steel beams built to hold up a vault (the vault is now in the basement by the gym). The stairs are straight up old DC, think Eisenhower Executive Office Building. It’s just a block from the White House, with a ton of transportation options — four of six Metro lines are within three blocks; all six lines are within six blocks.
We’re building a custom space that’s just ours, and get to put our stamp on it so when you walk in you really feel, and know, Mapbox roots are locked in DC.

We’re aiming to move at the end of January, and will be moving in with old friends — New America has the top floor, and the owner is the National Community Reinvestment Coalition.

In short, after looking at 75 properties in the last year — from Glover Park to the Atlas District — we’re upgrading to a proper home. As construction and design work progresses, we will send out regular updates to show the progress of the new office and what the space will look like.
