Zappos’ 1st Children’s Earth Day Art Contest

by Danielle C. on Apr 22, 2013 in SustainabilityBe the first to comment!

Happy Earth Day, friends! Zappos will be celebrating Earth Day this Wednesday by hosting our second annual Earth Day Event at our Henderson campus. In preparation for the event, we asked Zappos parents to enter their kids into our first Children’s Art Contest with a theme of, “How I care for the planet.”

We really want to highlight and recognize these kids for doing such an amazing job! Our kids are so important to us and are the reasons why we’re trying to leave the planet a better place, so that they can enjoy it the way we did. They are also the ones who will most likely solve many of the planet’s environmental challenges. After receiving the art entries, it was awesome to see how much our kids know about the planet and how to care for it! Show of hands: Did your child teach you and your family how to recycle?! Yep, ours too!

We’re so proud of all the kiddos that participated!! Below are the winners of the first Children’s Art Contest - Earth Day 2013. Each winner received a fabulous eco-friendly gift basket to help them continue to care for the planet.

Campus Development - City Hall Demolition Begins

by Zach Ware on Jul 27, 2012 in Campus2 comments

City Hall Demolition

This week we officially started the hard demolition of 400 Stewart Street (the former Las Vegas City Hall) in our march towards our new downtown Las Vegas HQ Campus.

Our plan is to complete demolition, mostly of the interior of the building, within the next 90 days. During that time we'll continue to work with the awesome Zappos Family to design our new HQ workspace. By October 2013, we'll be calling it home!

And yes, the really are going to drive that Bobcat into the building and destroy walls.

Out with Old City Hall, In with the New Zappos Campus!

by Zach Ware on Jun 22, 2012 in Campus1 comment

A couple of weeks ago, a few Zapponians were invited to start demolition on the old Las Vegas City Hall building on 400 East Stewart. What better way to kick off the construction of our new campus than by starting with Mayor Goodman's old office?

Move over Old City Hall! Zappos is moving in to the neighborhood!
