Boosting New York City’s economy
JPMorganChase remains one of the city’s largest employers, with the new building housing 10,000 of its 24,000 New York City employees. According to an independent study by Vista Site Selection, the firm contributes $42 billion annually to the city’s economy, supporting an additional 40,000 jobs across local industries. The construction of the new building alone created 8,000 jobs across 40 local unions.
Part of firm’s broader investment in Midtown Manhattan and workspaces globally
The new headquarters at 270 Park represents a major step in JPMorganChase’s ongoing investment in Midtown Manhattan and its global office network. In Midtown, the firm worked closely with the Metropolitan Transportation Authority to significantly improve the neighborhood’s infrastructure across several blocks. The opening of 270 Park also marks the start of renovations at the firm’s 383 Madison Avenue building, directly across the street. Both projects will enhance public spaces with a new plaza on Madison Avenue, wider sidewalks, and improved access to Grand Central Terminal.

“The official opening of JPMorganChase’s new global headquarters does more than add a signature building to Manhattan’s skyline – it reaffirms New York as the world’s financial capital, built on the strength of our workforce and infrastructure. Even better,
270 Park Avenue delivers benefits beyond its four walls, with critical investments to modernize the Grand Central train shed, ensuring safer, faster commutes for hundreds of thousands of New Yorkers. I commend Jamie Dimon and the JPMorganChase Operating Committee for their steadfast commitment to New York and the men and women for making this vision a reality. There is no better place to do business than New York.

New York State Governor
