Not much photographic evidence of the office exists online, but we've compiled a few images that will give you a peak into the luxurious digs of one of the world's foremost venture capital firms. Aside from modern-looking glass conference rooms and a prime location near Chelsea Market, the view from the office balcony is worth the click alone--we don't typically use the word "breathtaking," but it truly is.</p>
