PRINCETON, NJ — The Princeton Symphony Orchestra (PSO) has a new office address. PSO held a ribbon-cutting ceremony on Thursday to officially open its new offices at 1000 Herrontown Road.

After having doubled its administrative staff, PSO had outgrown its previous location on the grounds of the Princeton Charter School.

“We were bursting at the seams, particularly as the pandemic eased and our staff began to transition from remote work to a full return to the office,” Executive Director Marc Uys said.

He and Stephanie Wedeking, Chair of the Board of Trustees, began to put the word out that the PSO was looking for a new space.

Experience Princeton then connected Uys with Charlie Yedlin, President of the Yedlin Company, the property management firm overseeing the complex of buildings at 1000 Herrontown Road.

Yedlin reconfigured and refreshed the space located between Rte. 206 and Mt. Lucas Rd., with architect and interior designer Sheila Nall, making it suitable for PSO’s needs.

“Stephanie and I met with Charlie and Sheila regularly to ensure that our entire full-time staff of 12 would fit comfortably,” Uys said.

“We also created a flexible conference room space with a table which breaks down into multiple desktops in anticipation of seasonal staff brought on board each year to assist with the Princeton Festival.”

Also present at the ribbon cutting ceremony were Councilmember Michelle Pirone Lambros; Aubrey Haines, Princeton Property Partners; architect J. Robert Hillier and Caleb Feiring of Princevest.

“It’s a great, smart-looking space that we’re very proud of, right here in Princeton,” Uys said.

There is no public box office or performance space at the Princeton Symphony Orchestra’s administrative site.

Tickets are available 24/7 via their website at princetonsymphony.org, and people can call the box office at 609-497-0020 for personal assistance from 9 a.m.- 5 p.m.
