iWeb moves its headquarter to Nuns’ Island
Last week-end, iWeb moved its headquarter in a new building in Nuns’ Island, Montreal. The Sales, marketing, accounting departments along as manager’s offices are now under the same roof. It is the third headquarter of iWeb?s history.
The building also includes a 12,000 square feet datacenter set to host servers in colocation and those square feet are selling like hot cakes.
Here’s a few pictures of the new place.
The building is circled by trees and we are certainly planning to get out there and listen to the singing birds while eating on the grass.
Security is not an option for us, there is almost ten doors requiring an access card before entering office.
The datacenter is wide and bright.
Bagels and muffins were waiting for us in the kitchen, but we are still waiting for a cofee machine.
Office spaces are so wide that people at the other end seem really small.
Some took the opportunity to clean up their desks. Menus from restaurants nearby our old office were sent to the recycle bin.

We have many windows which is great since summer has finaly arrived !

Marketing must be happy now that they have Windows ! They used to work in the dark.

Olivier, we have a total of 29 000 square foot at Nuns Island, are you sure there is only 12 000 s.f. of datacenter floor? Is it because you do not include the power and electrical equipment rooms?

Martin, the number 29,000 includes the office spaces. Our datacenter has about 12,000 square feet, including power and electrical equipment rooms, but excluding hallways and… hmmm… the janitor closet.
