CBRE Opens New State-of-the-Art Workplace360 Office in Columbus, Ohio

The 18,811-sq.-ft. office in the River South District is designed to support the way people work today through flexibility, mobility, and technology

Columbus, Ohio – June 16, 2016 – CBRE Group, Inc. announced the opening of its new office at 200 Civic Center Drive in the New River South District in Columbus, Ohio. The new Columbus space is part of CBRE’s global Workplace360 initiative, the company’s leading-edge approach to workplace strategy designed to promote flexibility, mobility and productivity through technology-enabled, 100 percent-free address and paperless offices.

At 18,811 sq. ft., Columbus joins 29 other offices around the world in making this transition, including Los Angeles, Chicago and Madrid. 

“We are excited to move into our new Workplace360 office in the River South District,” said Michael Copella, Managing Director for CBRE’s Columbus office. “Moving to an emerging part of town and into a new way of working took a big leap of faith from our professionals and I’m thankful for their support through the process. Through superior flexibility, mobility and technology, our new space will allow us be more collaborative and efficient, and ultimately help us deliver the best service and results to our clients.” 

The office includes a variety of ways of working throughout the space including “offices for a day” and focus rooms for when privacy is required. Huddle and conference rooms provide employees with ample collaboration space. Additionally, with studies showing a growing importance placed on health and wellness in the workplace, the unique space offers two open-air balconies overlooking the city and German Village for employees to enjoy mid-day fresh air and sunlight. 

Enhanced technology that supports this mobile way of working is a core element of the Workplace360 model. “Plug and play” work stations feature sit-stand desks and are equipped with dual monitors, “follow me” phones allow employees to receive phone calls to their direct line from any location and “follow me” printing enables employees to wirelessly print to any printer in the office.

In addition, the digitization of hundreds of hard copy files allows employees to access their files from anywhere, while promoting a greener environment. Prior to the move, the office digitized 85 percent of all paper files and reduced file storage by more than 70 percent.

CBRE’s Workplace Strategy team led the implementation of the new space with its Project Management team, which oversaw the construction process. A steering committee made up of long-tenured local sales professionals also provided guidance on the design of the office, which uses locally sourced furniture and fixtures.  

“From the locally sourced wooden door that was converted into a farm table in the RISE Café, to the Ohio license plate displaying our RISE values (respect, integrity, service, excellence), the Columbus office fully represents CBRE’s balance as a company with global scale but local culture,” said Emily Neff, program manager for CBRE’s Workplace360 initiative. 

200 Civic Center Drive is a 239,532-sq.-ft., 14-story building located in the heart of the New River South District. Nestled between new parks and residential projects, it overlooks both the Columbus Business District and the Scioto River. The building was previously home to Columbia Gas and is currently going through extensive exterior and interior renovations. Amenities include an attached five-level parking garage with 484 spaces, an auditorium, fitness center and on-site security, and is within walking distance to the several restaurants and hotels.
