Amazon’s main office is at 410 Terry Avenue North, Seattle, Washington 98109-5210. The phone line is (206) 266-1000. But Amazon has two head offices. It owns and leases headquarters space in Washington’s Puget Sound region and in Arlington, Virginia.
We compiled this guide from Amazon’s own pages, its latest Form 10-K, company registers and local planning news. Then we did our own math on space, seats and growth. As a result, you get one table of Amazon’s big office buildings, with sizes only where Amazon or a public record gives them.
| Amazon fact | Figure |
|---|---|
| Main address | 410 Terry Ave. N., Seattle, WA 98109-5210 |
| Main phone | (206) 266-1000 |
| Second headquarters | Metropolitan Park, Arlington, Virginia |
| Staff at last fiscal year end | About 1,576,000 full-time and part-time |
| Office space worldwide | 68.5 million sq ft (our total from the 10-K) |
| Office buildings in Seattle | Over 40 |
| Largest campus when it opened in 2019 | Hyderabad, with 1.8 million sq ft of office space |
68.5 Million Square Feet of Amazon Offices, Split by Region
Amazon’s 10-K lists every type of space it uses. Offices are only one line. We added the leased and owned figures for offices in each region. North America holds 40.2 million square feet. The rest of the world holds 28.3 million. So the total comes to about 68.5 million square feet of office space.
| Office space | Leased (sq ft) | Owned (sq ft) | Total (sq ft) |
|---|---|---|---|
| North America | 31,028,000 | 9,160,000 | 40,188,000 |
| International | 26,495,000 | 1,802,000 | 28,297,000 |
| All offices | 57,523,000 | 10,962,000 | 68,485,000 |
Our math shows three clear patterns. First, North America has 58.7% of Amazon’s office space. Second, Amazon leases 84% of its offices and owns only 16%. In fact, 84% of its owned office space sits in North America, home to both headquarters.
Offices are also a small part of the company. In total, Amazon uses about 819.7 million square feet of space of all kinds. Warehouses, data centers and stores fill most of it. By our count, offices make up just 8.4% of that total.
Seattle’s Urban Campus: Day 1, Doppler and the Spheres
Amazon’s Seattle headquarters is spread across over 40 office buildings. They sit in South Lake Union, the Denny Triangle and downtown Seattle. So there is no single gated campus. Instead, the towers mix with shops and city streets.
Each building has a name and a theme. For example, Day 1 is named after a company motto about never resting. Doppler takes its name from the code name Amazon used while it built the Echo speaker. It has six places to eat. In 2020, about 6,000 dogs also came to work with staff each day.
The Spheres, Open to the Public by Reservation
Amazon opened the Spheres on January 29, 2018. The three glass domes hold more than 40,000 plants from over 400 species. The largest dome is over 90 feet tall and 130 feet wide, and the shell uses 2,643 panes of glass. Staff use the Spheres as an extra workspace.
Visitors can see a part of it too. The Understory, a visitor center at the Spheres, is open to the public all year. At the opening, Amazon said it had put more than $4 billion into designing and building its Seattle headquarters.
Bellevue, Amazon’s Growing Base Across Lake Washington
Amazon has been adding offices in Bellevue, east of Seattle. Its local staff count has grown from 2,790 to 14,300. That is about 5.1 times larger. Even so, Amazon has said it expects about 25,000 people there in time. By our math, it has reached 57% of that goal.
In January 2026, Amazon filed permits to restart work on more Bellevue towers. The filings cover Tower 1 at Bellevue 600, at 633 110th Ave. NE. They also cover the last two towers of the West Main complex at 117 106th Ave. NE. Besides that, Amazon leases a 611,000-square-foot building at 788 106th Ave. NE.
HQ2 in Arlington: Metropolitan Park Is Open, PenPlace Waits
Amazon’s second headquarters, known as HQ2, sits in Arlington, Virginia, just outside Washington, D.C. Its first phase is Metropolitan Park. Staff moved in during May 2023, and Amazon held the formal opening on June 15, 2023.
Met Park has two 22-story towers named Jasper and Merlin. Both names come from old project code names. Jasper was an Alexa project, while Merlin was the code name for QuickSight, an AWS dashboard tool. Together the towers hold 2.1 million square feet and room for more than 14,000 workers. The site also has a 2.5-acre public park and 65,000 square feet of ground-floor shops.
PenPlace and the Helix, Approved but Paused
PenPlace is the second phase. The plan calls for 3.3 million square feet of offices in three 22-story buildings in Pentagon City. It also includes the Helix, a spiral tower built around shared spaces. The Arlington County Board approved the plans unanimously in April 2022. However, Amazon paused the work in March 2023.
The pause has had knock-on effects. For example, Arlington Community High School was meant to get a permanent home at PenPlace. Because of the construction delays, its move was shifted to Met Park. On our numbers, Met Park is only 39% of the 5.4 million square feet planned across both phases.
Amazon’s plan calls for at least 25,000 HQ2 jobs by 2031, in at least 4 million square feet. Met Park alone has room for over 14,000 people. By our math, that covers 56% of the jobs goal.
Amazon in India: The Hyderabad Campus and the Bengaluru Office
Amazon opened its Hyderabad campus on August 21, 2019. It was then the company’s largest campus anywhere. The site covers 9.5 acres and has 1.8 million square feet of office space, within about 3 million square feet of total construction.
The building has 15,000 work points, or seats. It also has 290 meeting rooms, and its lifts can carry 972 people at once. Amazon laid the foundation stone on March 30, 2016. In fact, Hyderabad is where Amazon first set up in India, back in 2004.
We worked out the space per seat at about 120 square feet. That is 1.8 million square feet divided by 15,000 seats. By contrast, Met Park gives about 150 square feet per seat. So the Hyderabad building packs its people more tightly than the Arlington towers.
Amazon’s Registered Office in Bengaluru

Amazon’s European Offices in London, Dublin and Berlin
Amazon runs corporate offices in many European cities, including Madrid, Luxembourg, Munich and Milan. We focus on three of them because of their size or role. London hosts Amazon’s largest corporate office in Europe. Dublin is tied to AWS, while Berlin hosts a large research team.
LHR16 at 1 Principal Place, London
Amazon’s UK head office is LHR16, at 1 Principal Place in Shoreditch, east London. The 15-storey building opened in 2017 on the site of the old Norton Folgate power station. Amazon calls it its largest corporate office in Europe. It also serves a UK workforce of 75,000 people.
Amazon Online UK Limited uses 1 Principal Place, Worship Street, London EC2A 2FA as its registered office. It was set up on October 9, 2013. Amazon has since added LHR139, a newer eight-floor Shoreditch office with nearly 600 seats.
Amazon’s Dublin Offices and AWS in Ireland
Amazon opened a 170,000-square-foot office in central Dublin on June 18, 2018. At the time, it had more than 2,500 staff in Ireland, and it promised over 1,000 more jobs within two years. Ireland also matters to AWS. In November 2007, AWS opened its first EU region there.
Amazon’s Irish sites also include North County Dublin, Blanchardstown and Tallaght. In addition, a customer service center in Cork opened in April 2006. It covers over 47,500 square feet and employs more than 1,000 people.
The EDGE East Side Tower in Berlin
Amazon’s Berlin headquarters is in the EDGE East Side tower near the Warschauer Brücke. The tower rises about 140 meters over 37 floors. It has about 65,000 square meters of usable space, or roughly 700,000 square feet by our conversion. Amazon’s offices there have room for more than 3,400 staff.
The developer handed the tower to its new owner, PIMCO Prime Real Estate, in January 2024. Back in 2019, Amazon said it would rent 28 floors for its Berlin research center. Teams there work on AWS, Alexa and Fire TV.
The Post and Amazon’s Other Vancouver Towers
Amazon’s main Vancouver office is The Post, downtown. It fills a full city block, with 1.1 million square feet of office space and 185,000 square feet for food and shops. Amazon leases all of the office space.
The first staff moved into the South Tower in October 2023. Then, on March 30, 2026, the large move into the North Tower began. That tower has about 592,000 square feet, and Amazon leases 18 of its 22 floors. Amazon also has more than 4,500 corporate and tech staff in downtown Vancouver.
Two older Amazon towers sit close by. YVR14 is at 402 Dunsmuir St., and YVR20 is in The Exchange at 475 Howe St. So Vancouver staff are spread across several buildings, with The Post as the main one.
Amazon Office Buildings Compared by Size and Seats
We put the main buildings side by side. Sizes come from Amazon or from public records. Where a source gives only seats or staff, we left the size blank.
| Building | City | Published size | Seats or staff | Status |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 410 Terry Ave. N. and over 40 buildings | Seattle, US | Not published as one figure | Not published | Main headquarters |
| Metropolitan Park (Jasper and Merlin) | Arlington, US | 2.1 million sq ft | 14,000+ seats | Open since 2023 |
| PenPlace and the Helix | Arlington, US | 3.3 million sq ft planned | Not published | Approved in 2022, paused since March 2023 |
| Bellevue 600, West Main and 788 106th Ave. NE | Bellevue, US | 611,000 sq ft (788 106th Ave. NE) | 14,300 staff in Bellevue | Permits filed to restart towers |
| Hyderabad campus | Hyderabad, India | 1.8 million sq ft of offices | 15,000 work points | Open since 2019 |
| Brigade Gateway, 8th floor | Bengaluru, India | Not published | Not published | Registered office |
| LHR16, 1 Principal Place | London, UK | 15 storeys | UK workforce of 75,000 | Open since 2017 |
| LHR139 | London, UK | 8 floors | Nearly 600 seats | Open |
| Central Dublin office | Dublin, Ireland | 170,000 sq ft | 2,500+ staff in Ireland in 2018 | Open since 2018 |
| EDGE East Side | Berlin, Germany | About 700,000 sq ft usable (whole tower) | 3,400+ staff | Built and handed over in 2024 |
| The Post | Vancouver, Canada | 1.1 million sq ft of offices | 4,500+ staff downtown | North Tower move from March 30, 2026 |
Next, we compared each big building with Amazon’s 68.5 million square feet of offices. Met Park is about 3.1% of that total. The Hyderabad campus is about 2.6%, and The Post is about 1.6%. So even the flagship sites are small slices of a very wide network.
For comparison, our guide to Qualcomm offices worldwide counts 202 offices for a much smaller chipmaker. Our IBM offices worldwide page runs the same kind of space math on IBM’s 10-K.
Why Amazon Names Its Buildings After Airport Codes and Projects
Amazon names its sites after the nearest airport. For example, LHR16 in London takes its code from Heathrow, about 20 miles away. Likewise, YVR14 and YVR20 in Vancouver use the city’s airport code.
Headquarters towers often get a second, friendlier name. In Seattle, Day 1 and Doppler are two cases. At HQ2, Jasper and Merlin honor internal code names. Amazon says it names buildings after important moments in its history. So the same tower can have both a code and a name.
Other big tech firms follow their own systems. For example, see our list of Google office addresses around the world. Our guide to Apple offices in the USA covers Apple’s sites.
Getting Mail, Interviews and Visits to the Right Amazon Building
Each Amazon address serves a different purpose. So pick the one that matches your reason for contact.
- Legal letters and investor mail in the US go to 410 Terry Avenue North, Seattle, WA 98109-5210. Call (206) 266-1000 for the switchboard.
- UK legal letters go to the registered office at 1 Principal Place, Worship Street, London EC2A 2FA.
- Indian legal letters for the marketplace business go to Brigade Gateway, 26/1 Dr. Rajkumar Road, Bengaluru 560055.
- Job interviews take place in a named building. Ask the recruiter for the building code, because Seattle, Bellevue and Vancouver each have several towers.
- Public visits work at the Spheres in Seattle, which open by reservation. The Understory visitor center is open all year.
Also, plan calls with care when teams sit in Seattle, Arlington and Hyderabad. Our time zone converter shows the local hour in each city. Finally, treat any email that asks you to pay an Amazon recruiter as a scam. Our phishing email examples cover the usual tricks.
