New Headquarters
The Planetary Society's new headquarters, 85 South Grand in Pasadena, CA. |
After 25 years in our historic Greene and Greene headquarters in Pasadena, CA we are moving…but not far!
Our new headquarters is located at 85 South Grand, Pasadena, CA 91105.
25 years ago, we purchased the Sanborn House in Pasadena with the help of you, our Members. We are eternally grateful to all of you who supported this effort and helped us to purchase the property. The property has been our home and has served as the birthplace of many of our most exciting projects. As we have been packing and sorting through our bookshelves, files, photos, and memorabilia, we are amazed by the many projects and activities you have participated in and made possible by your support. It's inspiring to see what we have been able to accomplish together.
Today, we turn over the keys to the new owners, an architecture firm, and we wish them great success. They have terrific plans for restoring the 100 year-old house to its original glory. While we are a little sad at leaving our comfortable old house, we are excited about our new headquarters and the opportunities it affords.
This year, we celebrate our organization's 30th anniversary, and we're thrilled as we look at our next 30 years. We look forward to continuing this adventure along with you. It is going to be new for us… and tremendously exciting.
Thanks for being along for the ride.
