You have 3 options.

1. Redo PERM and I-140 for new location

2. Wait until I-485 is filed. If I-485 is pending for more than 180 days, use AC-21 Job Portability provision. I.e., submit a new I-485J for new location/position

3. Wait until you get Green card (I-485 approval). Then move back to original PERM location for a period of at least 6 months (consult with your immigration lawyer for time-frame)

I personally was waiting for option 2, but I-485 was approved in 60 days. Didn't qualify for AC-21 and then ended up going with Option 3.
