Companies have figured out how to get work done with teleworking. The need for large offices and mass transit in the cities has been greatly reduced.

Needing less office space will result in savings for businesses, so they may not want many employees on site anymore.

Fidelity’s corporate offices in Westlake, Texas are being redesigned and they have removed hundreds of individual cubicles and turned entire wings and floors into cohabitating, group-work “lounges” with coffee and fruit smoothie bars!

Most of their workers work from home now, and only come in for training sessions and “team building” work in these loungey areas.

They had planned to build two additional buildings on their huge campus...now they are leaving the space for nature.
