Revel, an EV-only, app-based ride service, is moving to the Falchi Building in Long Island City, Queens. The company announced it had leased 8,000 sq. ft. for five years on the second floor of the building, which is located at 31-00 47th Ave.
In May, Revel moved 40 employees into the space, where it will handle driver support, operations and recruitment. The company relocated from its Pfizer campus in Brooklyn, which is also home to Revel’s first electric car charging hub.
“Revel is hiring more New Yorkers as W2 employee drivers, helping us improve zero-emission transportation access across our city,” Revel spokesperson Robert Familiar said. “To accommodate that growth, we’re investing in Queens to base and expand our full-time ride-share support teams. The Falchi Building, where the NYC Taxi & Limousine Commission (TLC) is also located, is a familiar and convenient location for our drivers to access any resources they may need.”
In addition to the TLC, the Falchi Building is also home to Lyft, Uber and Via.
