According to a report by Boston Business Journal, Facebook appears to be looking for office space in its old neighborhood of Cambridge, Mass. As we all know, Facebook was founded in Mark Zuckerberg’s Harvard dorm room, and it would be appropriate that Facebook would set up a space to attract talent, as well as revel in some nostalgia. Sources have told the publication that the company would like to find a 7,000-ish square foot space in Kendall Square to become the home for software engineers that have yet to be hired. Once again, there’s no better place to attract talent than nearby Harvard. Facebook already has a few employees in Boston’s Financial District, but this would signal a more permanent home. The area that Facebook is poking around in is also inhabited by Google, Microsoft and Nokia offices. The report also calls out Newmark Knight Frank as the real estate brokerage of choice for Facebook, and the search is focused on Cambridge Center and One Kendall Square. We all know that Facebook “infamously” made the move out to the West Coast to live the startup dream, leaving Harvard behind. It would be quite the homecoming for Zuck and company. The company’s campus is currently in the old Sun Microsystems haunt in Menlo Park, with global locations in Ireland and Hyderabad. We’ve reached out to Facebook for comment, and will update our story if we hear back.
