Sticky Notes War Between Two Office Buildings That Got Out Of Hand

Published 7 years ago

Post-it notes are an awesome way to leave someone a cute message they’ll find in the morning or be passive-aggressive at work when James leaves a mess after himself in the kitchen… come on James! But a couple of office buildings in New York stepped it up a notch when they started a full-blown sticky notes war between themselves.

It all started when an employee at Harrison and Star wrote “hi” on his office window, hoping to catch the attention of a neighboring office across the street. He did. And they replied with “sup”. This was just a humble beginning to what happened next. Both office buildings house a number of marketing and media agencies with employees not afraid to share their creativity.

Take a look at the shots from their battle, which culminated in an epic finale.

As both buildings had a lot of media and marketing agencies, it eventually turned into WAR
