Foley Hoag Occupies Seven Floors of World Trade Center West

BOSTON-Foley Hoag LLP, a locally based business law firm, moved into its new office at World Trade Center West, the recently completed, 17-story tower located in the Seaport district.

Foley Hoag is the first tenant to occupy the 530,000-sf office building and will take the top seven floors, or 224,000 sf of the building. This move also officially marks the change of the firm’s name from Foley, Hoag & Eliot LLP to Foley Hoag LLP.

World Trade Center West was developed jointly by Pembroke Real Estate, a Fidelity Investments Company, and The Drew Company, a Boston-based real estate development and management firm. The building joins the 16-story, 505,000 sf World Trade Center East, the World Trade Center Boston, and the Seaport Hotel to form the World Trade Center Complex along Boston’s waterfront.

Paul Murphy, the partner at Foley Hoag who has spearheaded the move, emphasizes that his firm anticipates that, “as the city’s transportation infrastructure continues to take shape, the Seaport District will become the commercial center in Boston for the 21st century. We couldn’t be in a more strategic location for our Boston-based operations.”
