Opower Extends Lease At Courthouse Tower Through May 2018

Energy software company Opower has decided to remain in Arlington’s Courthouse neighborhood while it weighs future options for relocating its HQ.

Opower has extended its lease at Courthouse Tower, located at 1515 N Courthouse Road, through May 2018, the Washington Business Journal reports. The lease was set to expire in November, and Opower was considering other locations before agreeing to an extension with MEPT Courthouse Tower LLC.
