Bell Labs Holmdel Complex

The Bell Labs Holmdel Complex, also known as “The Biggest Mirror Ever,” was designed by renowned architect Eero Saarinen and constructed between 1959 and 1962. The complex, featuring a curtain wall of mirrored glass, was a shining example of modernist architecture. Inside, a grand atrium divided the site into four segments where thousands of researchers and engineers worked. Notable discoveries and inventions took place at Bell Labs, including Nobel Prize-winning work on laser light and the Big Bang theory. The complex faced demolition in 2006 but was ultimately saved and renovated. It now houses businesses and even a farmer’s market.
