A recent article from GeekWire reports that Facebook is branching out and expanding its office space in the Seattle area. The social media company opened its first Seattle engineering office in 2010, near Pike Place Market and moved on to occupy multiple floors in the Metropolitan Park complex near Interstate 5. Facebook a great example of how out-of-town tech companies are investing in Seattle. More recently, according to a year-end report from real estate brokerage the Broderick Group, it looks like Facebook has leased the 150,621-square-foot 1101 Westlake building in the South Lake Union neighborhood, which will likely bring more employees and possibly more jobs to the Seattle area.
