PwC has moved its Grand Rapids office into a new 2,157-square-foot space downtown.

PwC now occupies a newly designed space at 80 Ottawa Ave. NW.

The company opted to move to accommodate a more updated PwC design, taking advantage of a more central location in a historic building to facilitate a “big push” to re-invest in the Grand Rapids community.

The new office includes an open, “industrial-style” layout with a working environment that promotes internal collaboration and communication. The new layout does away with cubicles and fluorescent lighting that were in place at PwC’s previous location, at 333 Bridge St. NW.

Currently, 34 employees work at PwC’s Grand Rapids office. While the move did not include a hiring initiative, the new office space was designed with regard to future recruitment potential in mind.

PwC is headquartered in London with more than 223,000 employees in 157 countries worldwide. It operates Michigan offices in Grand Rapids and Detroit.
