John Koblin of the New York Observer writes Wednesday about the Wall Street Journal‘s move into a new building in midtown Manhattan with the other Dow Jones business news operations.
Koblin writes, “Over the past two weeks, about a quarter of Dow Jones properties have already completed the move.
“On Friday, the bulk of The Journal’s newsroom — reporters and editors from economics, the editorial page, health, law, money and investing, media, personal finance, investigative, real estate, Sunday Journal — will be moving in. By the end of the month, Mr. Thomson will join them.Â
“The Journal’s new space will be in the old Celanese building, where it’ll share quarters with Fox News, the Fox Business Channel, the New York Post.
“‘We want it to be the most modern and dynamic media space in the world,’ wrote Dow Jones CEO Leslie Hinton in a memo to staff announcing the move last year.”
