National Resources: Work

The standard office is no longer an environment suited for the way we work today. Attracting and retaining motivated and well educated employees now requires a revolutionized approach in creating a stimulating and productive workspace.

Forget everything you thought you knew about an office. In order to appeal to today's talent our idea of the workplace must be stripped to its core and rebuilt from the ground up. This is where iPark comes in.

Under the iPark brand, National Resources has transformed some of America's largest industrial sites into vibrant workplaces. During the past 15 years iPark has developed over 5 million square feet of space in 8 different locations while creating more than 20,000 new jobs in formerly vacant space. And rather than erase the incredible stories behind these historic properties, National Resources has kept the original structures intact, guarding all the history and character contained within their walls while re-inventing them for further years of hard work, discovery and innovation.

iPark Hudson is not your old-fashioned office park. In fact, it is the anti-office park. With buildings and architecture similar to that of SoHo and the Highline District in lower Manhattan, iPark Hudson offers an unparalleled sense of character and authenticity, creating an exciting work environment for companies who are weary of the outdated office park model.

Founded on the present day site of iPark Hudson in 1853 by Elisha Otis, The Otis Elevator Company has grown to become the world's largest manufacturer of vertical transportation systems. It is here, in the very same buildings occupied by current iPark tenants, that Otis pioneered the development of the world's first safety elevator, which would allow for the creation and proliferation of skyscrapers as we know them today. One of these current tenants is Kawasaki, who furthers this property's history of innovation as they design, build and repair the next generation of New York City subway cars.

Over the past decade, significant growth has occurred in the medical, biotech and life science fields. With campuses located in the heart of the thriving NY Medical Research and Development community, iPark implemented a program dedicating significant blocks of space at each iPark facility to this use. Leases have been executed with some of the most respected healthcare organizations, and premises have been delivered turn-key at a cost and rent significantly lower than city facilities.
