The move comes after the company's decision to allow its employees to permanently work from home because of the coronavirus pandemic.
Twitter noted that it has no plans to close any of its offices and that its decision to sublease is part of an ongoing effort to support a distributed workforce.
"Our focus on prioritizing decentralization has allowed us to flex our active leased spaces as needed," a spokesperson for the company told FOX Business in a statement. "San Francisco is where a majority of our employees will be based for the foreseeable future, and we will continue to maintain our footprint here.”
