Yelp Signs San Francisco Building Lease To 2021
“Yelp has given San Francisco a five-star rating, committing itself to stay in its hometown through at least 2021.”
“The popular online review site, one of the first dot-coms to set up shop in the city after the Internet bubble burst, will announce Thursday that it has signed a roughly 100,000-square-foot lease at the Pacific Telephone Building, an Art Deco classic of the city’s skyline.”
“We’ve grown up here in the city, and it’s fair to say that Yelp wouldn’t have been as successful had we not started in a city like San Francisco,’ said Jeremy Stoppelman, chief executive of Yelp, in describing why the company decided to keep its headquarters here. ‘It’s a very dynamic cultural scene, lots of restaurants and nightlife, and all those things feed nicely into what Yelp is about.'”
