Jeff Bezos showed off his modest 90s office workspace, he started with modest roots. We look back at the billionaire's rented property in Seattle where he first launched Amazon as an online bookstore in 1995.
Rare photos share a peek inside Jeff's office space, although it's not clear if they were taken at the Seattle property. Jeff and his 11 employees moved out of his garage and into a nearby warehouse in 1996, but one snap dated 1999 reveals the businessman lounging on a red quilted seat in front of a wooden desk with several old computers.A stack of CDs was placed on the floor which was covered with faded red carpets, while he held one up proudly to the camera.
Built in 1954, Jeff's former home was remodeled in 2001 with a new roof and bathroom, and listing photos show the interiors now boast chalet-style wood-panelled ceilings, white walls and skylights flooding the space with lots of natural light.Seattle Times
