How about this: "Where are you headquartered?" 

Plural, singular, who cares, when there is an easy way out? :-)

Greetings all,

I'm hoping for your help. This issue I believe, comes mainly down to
personal preference, but I'm hoping someone out there has a more concrete
answer.

I'm dealing with a phrase which currently reads: "Where is your
headquarters?"

I believe it should read, "Where are your headquarters?"

According to Webster's, both are correct. Given that, all I have to go on is
that I think my revision, "sounds better."  Can anyone offer anything more
concrete? 

TIA,
