The Journey to Coworking Part Three

We’ve got the new coworking space set up, online, furnished, and just about ready for members. Here is a quick tour of the actual space. It’s about the size of a modest coffee shop, and it has capacity for about 12-14 members at any given time. We’ve even got the name and branding just about ready to go: CommonSpace.

I’m very excited to see coworking in Grand Rapids, MN becoming a reality. I haven’t used my home office in over a week and I honestly haven’t missed it. I’ve still got most of the flexibility I have when working from home (other than working in my PJs), but I’m in an environment that is a bit more social. Right now just two of us are using it as things get rolling, so the social aspect should only get better.

    Hey, that’s a nice space. I’m curious to see how it will work. Personally, I am planning for the day SC gets an office :) There’s nothing like being in a room with others while hacking away at your work – especially if you’re not obligated to be there 9-5

    It’s nice to know I’m not the only one who uses multiple ear buds…

    Nice vid. The space looks great. Was that Mr. Scott in there with you?

    Thanks, Scott! Super excited to see what happens. I enjoy working at home but the kids are growing and my office needs to become a bedroom. The timing on this is perfect.

    And I had another pair in my bag…just in case.

    Yep, that was the man, the myth, the legend, Dave Scott. Dave IS Verizon Wireless.
