Lego moving headquarters to Boylston Street in Boston in 2025
BOSTON - Lego will start calling Boylston Street in Boston home in 2025.
Earlier this year, The Lego Group announced it would be moving its Enfield, Connecticut, headquarters to Boston. On Monday, the company got more specific saying it's new address will be 1001 Boylston Street.
The new building will be 100,000 square feet and five floors high. It's expected to have a gym, a parent room, parking and Bluebikes. Both Orange and Green line MBTA stops are within walking distance.
Lego plans to start moving in mid-2025.
"Actually, the simple reasons for Boston, for us to move to Boston from where we are right now in Connecticut are to be in a space where we have the opportunity to continue to grow our workforce and compete effectively for high-caliber talent," President of The Lego Group in the Americas Skip Kodak said. "We are going to be looking for community partners who value the benefits of bringing learning through play to kids of all ages, and we have a specific focus on serving communities where that access isn't always available."
Lego has been in Enfield since 1975. They have about 740 employees there and the company said about 400 Enfield employees will be making the move to Boston.
