Arianna Huffington is taking the Soho half of her “1+1 = 11” equation and moving it into AOL’s Greenwich Village offices. The media titan, who announced in a post-Super Bowl Web and Twitter blitz that she would be merging the Huffington Post with AOL in exchange for a cool $315 million, was previously rumored to have set her sights on a loft in the Mattel Building in Chelsea — at 675 Sixth Avenue — for the new HuffPo headquarters. So much for that. Now that Huffington has sold the company, which currently blogs from a loft at 560 Broadway, near Prince Street, an internal source told the Observer that HuffPo staffers are all moving to AOL’s 770 Broadway.
