Yogurt company Chobani LLC has unveiled plans for a new global headquarters in New York City.
The 120,000-square-foot, 22-floor office building at 360 Bowery is set to open in the fourth quarter of 2025 and will be about much more than just running the business, according to a company statement.
Chobani House is set to bring a new model for urban development to the city’s NoHo neighborhood, by blending business, community investment and impact. Chobani said it’s embracing a new vision for how businesses can invest in and deliver sustained impact for their home community.
Peter Michailidis and Dan Posy of JLL represented the tenant in the building lease, while David Kleiner and Carlee Palmer, also of JLL, represented the landlord, CBSK Ironstate, according to The Real Deal.
Chobani’s employees will have a four-day-per-week in-office schedule. The building will also include a community kitchen preparing meals for those in need, experiential retail space and an incubator lab for emerging NGOs and non-profits focused on social impact.

Located in the Hudson Waterfront South area, the project signals Chobani’s commitment to NYC for the next 30 years. Chobani said it appreciates New York City’s location, with its rich tapestry of people, energy, grit and determination.
Chobani House will also host the Tent Partnership for Refugees, an organization founded by Turkish billionaire and Chobani founder, Hamdi Ulukaya.
This network of over 400 major companies is committed to helping refugees from countries in the Americas and Europe access local labor markets by assisting them to become job-ready and connecting them to work.
NoHo is considered a trendy neighborhood where creative meets chic. About 2 miles south of the Empire State Building, the area has architectural features ranging from 19th-century behemoths like the Great Hall of Cooper Union to sleek, modern high-rises.
Once home to artists like Andy Warhol and the legendary CBGB music club, the area stays true to its heritage with trendy galleries and live performances at Joe’s Pub. A place where well-heeled locals mingle in upscale bars and stylish restaurants.
