Signs on the windows says “Time to Bloom” and “What’s Blossoming?” Amazon purchased the 11-story building at 424 Fifth Avenue at West 38th Street from WeWork for a reported $1.15 billion and plans use it as its New York City headquarters for some 2,000 employees.

The New York Post reported that the building includes a posh indoor cafeteria, lounge, floor-to-ceiling windows with killer views, and a dog run on the rooftop. So far, no word on what the retail space on the first floor will house.
