The company began looking for new space in the summer of 2016, and considered moving to Northern Virginia or expanding its office in New York, according to a release. The space at 1201 Pennsylvania ultimately provided flexibility, and the potential for more room to grow.

The company has a combined 130 employees between offices in D.C., New York and Seoul, South Korea. Fifty three of the company’s employees currently live in D.C.

FiscalNote was represented by Bobby Blair and Andy O’Brien of real estate and professional services firm JLL.
