Charter Communications plans new 500,000-square-foot headquarters in Stamford

Cable giant Charter Communications on Tuesday proposed a large new headquarters in Stamford. The company said it intends to build a 500,000-square-foot, 15-story building at Gateway Harbor Point, according to the Fairfield Business Journal. The company, considered the second-largest cable provider in the U.S., relocated operations to the city in 2012. Charter said it would create an additional 1,100 jobs at the new facility, which will break ground after receiving land-use approval from the city. [FBJ]
