Guardian Life Insurance Company today celebrated the opening of a new office in Holmdel, New Jersey, at the old Bell Laboratories site.
Guardian, which is based in New York, has leased 90,000 square feet at the complex and is planning to move about 300 employees into the space in the newly renovated "Bell Works" complex. Many will work at a Guardian technology hub.
The famous architect Eero Saarinen designed the historic building. AT&T's Bell Labs had about 6,000 people working there from 1962 to 2007. The scientists, engineers and technologists there helped develop the technology that made modern telecommunications and computers possible, and they also helped establish important new fields of basic science, such as radio astronomy.
