Seeking Office Space for Coworking

March 28th, 2006

The Coworking project’s goal is to create a new sort of digitally-augmented office/collaboration space for independent workers in cities around the world.

I’m psyched about this because (1) I don’t have an office and I’d love to set up shop in such a coworking space for at least a day a week, and (2) location-based tech and digitally-augmented urban spaces are things that make my heart go pitter-patter. Coworking spaces can be great incubators and testing grounds for this mojo. This stuff is what PlaceSite is all about, and I’m excited to see how we can adapt PlaceSite to boost collaboration and creative cross-pollination in these spaces.

The San Francisco coworking project is looking for a largish, relatively inexpensive office space or warehouse in town to house our first coworking space. We’re particularly interested in the areas around 20th and Mission, 16th and De Haro, and South Park. We’re open to other places in the city near BART and other transit, and preferably near cafes.

If you know anyone who might lease out such a space, please drop me a line.

    hi,

    i rent small space in big converted warehouse
    straight in heart of the Mission: 20th and Shotwell.
    it is called Bunker Studios (i call it just my bunker ;-)

    just last week, two tenants moved out and there is
    enough room to sit 4-5 people at one part of building and 2-3 at another. Those are open-plan spaces.
    You can look at www.bunkerstudios.com.

    i rent a room there as well which i do not use all the time. they have small kitchen, wifi, and common printer and fax. the space is kind of cool and mostly quiet. there are some designers, some artists, and some programmers.

    email me if you want to know more, or perhaps visit it, i am there every other day usually.
