The Chazen Companies has moved its North Country office to a new and larger location in Glens Falls.
Company officials said the move is a result of rapid company growth. The new office is located at the historic building that was once Clark Brothers Glove Factory, also known as The Mill, at 20 Elm St.
Chazen opened its North Country office in Glens Falls in 2000 and moved to Queensbury 13 years later in 2013. During its current period of growth and expansion, Chazen is returning to Glens Falls at a new location downtown to accommodate its increasing success, the company said.
Chazen’s new was created in 1920 and was once considered one of the largest glove-making facilities in upstate New York. The factory served as the largest employer in the city during the first half of the 20th century. It operated until 1968.
“This expansion will continue to allow Chazen to serve and expand its presence in the marketplace, following the recent openings of our new offices in White Plains; Portland, Ore.; and Nashville and Chattanooga, Tenn. Our new space in Glens Falls demonstrates Chazen’s long-term sustainability and success of our firm,” said Mark Kastner, P.E., senior principal, president of The Chazen Companies.
