NEW YORK— The Illuminating Engineering Society (IES) has decided to relocate from its office space at 120 Wall Street, marking the end of an era that spanned several decades. This move is part of a strategic initiative to optimize our operational efficiency, embrace modern work trends, and better serve our members and the lighting community.
“Having been a fixture in the vibrant landscape of Wall Street, the decision to vacate our longtime office space was not made lightly,” stated IES Executive Director Colleen Harper. “We cherish the memories and milestones achieved during our tenure in this historic location. The move is a testament to our commitment to evolving with the changing needs of our organization and the industry we serve.”
IES’ new office space will be within the WeWork location at 85 Broad Street in New York City. The transition is expected to be seamless, with no disruption to our operations and services, and will be completed by the start of February.
As we bid farewell to 120 Wall, we express our gratitude to all who have been part of our journey in this space — our dedicated staff, members, industry partners, and the vibrant community that surrounds us. The IES remains steadfast in its mission to advance the art and science of lighting for the benefit of society and the environment.
