Thanks to everyone for helping prepare to leave The 411 and transition to our temporary space at The Barrington at 540 W. Northwest Highway. Our space at The 540 is up and running, ready for you to move in.

Important 540 Info:

• Building key cards have been distributed. If you have not gotten your badge, see Deneen today (2/3/26) or Rita will have badges at The 540 starting Wednesday, 2/4/26. Meet Rita in the lobby at The 540 to get your badge. You’ll have to then move your car to the appropriate parking lot.

  • Pepper does NOT control building access. Employees will be responsible for the cost to replace lost cards, so please be responsible.

  • You must have a key card to enter Please display them at all times while at 540.

• If you need file cabinets or storage, please reach out to Donna Brancher.

• As  you unpack, please break down your boxes and put them along the front wall near Rita’s desk. They will be picked up daily.

Reminders

• There is no recycling at The 540. You may have a blue bin at your workstation – it is for trash.

Moving Schedule:

Continue to work at The 411 as usual until your scheduled move-out date. Keep anything you need immediately to work – your laptop, headset, camera, etc. – with you and plan to take with you when you move to The 540.
