Thank you for supporting the Blue Flame Café in Peoples Center! We have been very pleased with the overall traffic to the Café, and with the freshness and variety of the choices prepared for employees. Now that we have been in operation for a few months, we will be making a couple of adjustments to make sure we're providing optimal, effective service.
Breakfast Hours
Coffee and hot breakfast service will run from 7:00 – 9:00 am. Continental Breakfast will be available from 9:00 – 10:30 a.m.
Starbucks Hours
Starbucks service will be available from 6:45 am to 1:45 pm. As always, complimentary coffee is provided in the pantries on all floors.
Pantry Vending Machine
The fresh food vending machine located in the Second Floor West pantry has seen minimal sales, and we have been forced to throw food away almost daily. To keep this option available, we are going to move the machine to the 5th floor. We have had requests from our fifth floor neighbors for food access. This change will occur in the next couple weeks.
Peoples Dispatch and Gas Control employees who work off hours will automatically be given elevator access to continue using the pantry vending machine. If you would like to request continued access to this machine on the 5th floor, please contact Mark Pietrone (Mark.Pietrone@peoples-gas.com).
The Fitness Center in Peoples Center (375 North Shore) is open to all Peoples employees who complete the required waiver (no contractors are permitted to use the facility, for liability reasons). It is also free!

All you have to do is sign the waiver below and send it to Mark Pietrone and Linda Gitzen. Once they receive your waiver, they will activate your Peoples ID badge within 48 hours so that it opens the Fitness Center. A couple of other important things to note:
