Mark Zuckerberg, the company’s chief executive and chairman, recently expressed excitement about the prospect. He said he would work on the scheme with the legendary Canadian architect Frank Gehry, whose buildings include the famous Guggenheim Museum in Bilbao and the Walt Disney Concert Hall in Los Angeles.
“I’m excited to work with Frank Gehry to design our new campus. The idea is to make the perfect engineering space: one giant room that fits thousands of people, all close enough to collaborate,” said Zuckerberg, who famously became one of the richest people in America after creating his phenomenally popular social network platform.
“It will be the largest open floor plan in the world, but it will also have plenty of private, quiet spaces as well. The roof of the building will be a park that blends into the community with a long walking trail, a field and lots of places to sit,” he explained.
Facebook floated on the New York Stock Exchange earlier this year but has since seen its share price fall considerably below initial levels. In July, it was widely reported that the company has been on the lookout for new offices in New York to add to its existing near-40,000 square feet office space presence in the city.
