Designed by Eero Saarinen, Bell Works is actually four distinct buildings. The original structure was completed in 1961, and then expanded in the 1980’s to become the spaces we enjoy today.
OUR BUILDING IS ON THE NATIONAL REGISTRY OF HISTORIC PLACES. THAT MEANS THE ORIGINAL BONES OF THE BUILDING CANNOT BE CHANGED.
8 Nobel prizes have been awarded for work completed at Bell Laboratories.
