Hey LEGO enthusiasts! If you’re as big a fan of those colorful bricks as I am, then I’ve got some exciting news that’s going to make your day. The LEGO Group, our favorite toy company, has just announced a major move that’s got everyone talking.

New Beginnings at 1001 Boylston Street 🏢

By 2026, the LEGO Group will be calling 1001 Boylston Street, Boston, MA their new home. And guess what? This isn’t just any location. It’s right at the crossroads of Boylston Street, Massachusetts Avenue, and the ever-so-chic Newbury Street. This strategic move is all about gearing up for an even brighter future and ensuring that they continue to light up the imaginations of young (and young-at-heart) builders across the globe.

A Word from the Top 🎤

Skip Kodak LEGO Group Regional President Americas

Skip Kodak, the head honcho of the LEGO Group in the Americas, couldn’t contain his excitement. He shared, “We’re beyond thrilled to be relocating to a place that’s steeped in such rich history. Nestled in Back Bay, perfectly positioned between the vibrant cities of Boston and Cambridge, this move is a game-changer for us. We see it as a massive investment in our future and a big shoutout to our dedicated team. Our goal? To create an environment where creativity and innovation aren’t just encouraged; they’re celebrated. And with this new space, the possibilities are endless.”

Why Boston? 🌆

After months of scouting, researching, and probably a lot of coffee, 1001 Boylston Street emerged as the top pick. The LEGO Group believes in surrounding itself with the best, and Boston offers just that. With its diverse talent pool, a culture of innovation, and a plethora of other forward-thinking companies, it’s the perfect place to foster collaboration and growth. As Skip aptly put it, “Boston is a melting pot of arts, entertainment, education, research, and business. By anchoring ourselves at 1001 Boylston Street, we’re ensuring that we’re right at the heart of all the action, ready to bring the magic of LEGO® play to even more children in the US and throughout the Americas.”

Wrapping It Up 🎁

So, fellow LEGO lovers, exciting times are on the horizon. With this move, the LEGO Group is not just changing its address; it’s setting the stage for a new chapter full of innovation, creativity, and endless fun. I, for one, can’t wait to see what they have in store for us next!
