CBRE’s First East Coast Coworking Location To Open In Shadow Of Amazon HQ2

The coworking concept CBRE launched in late 2018 has chosen the same neighborhood as Amazon HQ2 for its first East Coast location. JBG Smith announced Tuesday it signed a 39K SF lease with Hana, a CBRE subsidiary, at 2451 Crystal Drive in Arlington's Crystal City neighborhood.  The lease includes a revenue sharing agreement with the landlord, a JBG Smith spokesperson said, and Hana members will be integrated into JBG Smith's customer experience network. CBRE plans to have the location open within the year.  Hana opened its first coworking space in Dallas in August, and it has announced additional locations in London and Irvine, California. Hana CEO Andrew Kupiec told The Wall Street Journal early last year he plans to expand to 25 markets over the next three to four years.
