Electronic signature company DocuSign says it has secured space across six floors inside Seattle’s 999 Third Avenue office tower.

At 119,000 square feet, the new office is about 35 percent larger than the company’s old location just five blocks down the road. That space currently holds 560 employees.

DocuSign is a leader in the electronic signature space, having raised $525 million in total funding and considered on the cusp of an IPO. The company was founded by Tom Gonser in Seattle in 2003, and has long sat atop the GeekWire 200 list of trending Pacific Northwest startups. It now maintains headquarters in both Seattle and the Silicon Valley, though the Seattle office is the company’s largest.

DocuSign’s move, which was first reported by the Puget Sound Business Journal, comes as Zillow continues to gobble up space in the company’s old building, the Russell Investments Center.

DocuSign will have space on the 4th, 5th, 8th, 9th, 16th and 17th floors beginning June of 2016, according to a company spokesman. The move is expected to be complete by next December.
