Hey everybody,

Wow, it's been a crazy time since I first discovered all of you back in January 2007. Before I knew it, I was living in NYC and building communities and running around looking at spaces of all sorts of shapes and sizes.

Now, almost two years later, I'm proud to say that we have a space of our own right here in Manhattan. New Work City has a home!

We'll be located on 200 Varick Street, on the corner of Varick & W. Houston Streets. We'll take the next couple of weeks to get up and running, and expect to be open for business on November 3rd!

We'll be rolling out memberships gradually, starting with full- and part-timers, and then adding from there as we go.

More details here on our blog: http://nwc.tumblr.com/post/53496448/new-work-city-has-a-home

You guys have changed my life. Thanks so much for all your help and support and energy and enthusiasm! We're doing great things together :-)

Cheers,
Tony Bacigalupo

Fantastic news, congrats Tony!

Luckily we'll (my co-founder Dan and I) be in NYC the week of your
opening so we'll certainly drop by to see the place and hopefully find
a moment to get you a couple of celebratory beers.

Sweet!

Ping me if you'd like to check out the space on 10/31; I'll probably be there but don't know what the exact schedule will be.

You might maybe be able to attend the grand opening party! We're still trying to figure out the right date to do it, with Halloween and the election in such close proximity.

Stay tuned!

Tony

Awesome.

Well, I'm open to suggestions.

- Halloween is Friday, October 31st (expect a killer party at House 2.0, if you're in town)
- Saturday, November 1st is the first day we officially take on the space, but I imagine people will just be coming off the high of Halloween.
- Monday, November 3rd is our first work day in the space, but it's the day before election day and apparently a lot of folks will be out of town.

I'm leaning towards 11/1 and figure most of us can handle two nights of mayhem :-)

Would also be ideal for out-of-town visitors, I imagine.

Thoughts?

Rock on!

Tony! This is spectacular.

I've got 11/1 on my calendar ferrrr sure to be in town. Let me know if
I can help out in any way. I'll be in NYC on 10/22 for biz as well so
I'd love to catch up then too if you're around.

And, great location btw! Nicely done.

Thanks Igor! Looking forward to learning more about your progress!

@Suzi sounds great! I might be on my way to Houston on 10/22 for HeroCamp, but we'll check back in as the date nears.

Regarding 11/1, that looks like it's going to be the date, so save it! I'll send out the official invite once we determine the venue (would love to use the space itself, but want to check first).

!!!

Tony
