01wired-lobby
*A massive, marble reception desk used to stand in every floor's lobby at 4 Times Square. But the [receptionists were all let go](http://www.nypost.com/p/news/business/item_7ymCUDMZomTMqDDwszzlvM;jsessionid=087397513B826057B01894A820793F2D) as the media business imploded in the summer of '09.

10reddit-board
*Usually, the [Reddit](http://www.reddit.com) white board contains the typically inscrutable, bullet-point-laden morass of action points you find in every office. Then one morning ... this disturbing message appeared. It was erased shortly thereafter.*
11dave-mosher-hard-at-work
*[Dave Mosher](http://stag-komodo.wired.com/wiredscience/author/davemosher/), contributor to Wired Science, pretends to be hard at work.*

18back-issues
*Someone seems to be organizing these back issues in what used to be Chris Anderson's East Coast office.*
19publisher-howard-mittman
Wired *magazine's VP and publisher is Howard Mittman.*
