245 Duckworth

[James Munroe]

It was agreed at our last meeting that finding a space (any space?) is a critical step. There are a few units available at 245 Duckworth:

424 sq. ft. at $584/mo
200 sq. ft at $ 274/mo
482 sq. ft at $662 /mo
887 sq. ft at $1222 /mo

These prices include operating costs (heating/lighting/taxes). The extras would be HST and business tax. The lease offered is for 12 months.

Although they are not ground floor, I think it might be a good I idea to check it out. I have arranged with Des Sullivan, the landlord, to meet at the building next Tuesday at 7pm (after our regular meeting). Hopefully 2 or 3 people will be able to join me.

James i should be available to go have a look with you. are you interested in dropping by any others?

[James Munroe]

Hi David,

Yes, we should concurrently visit anything else that is on our radar.  Does anyone have contact information for another location and want to arrange a time?

Regarding Duckworth, I am getting a good sense of being in that area of town. Central, good vibe with arts community.  Among other things, there is the Anna Templeton Centre in the same neighbourhood. Here's a possible vision: have our "home base" at 245 Duckworth, and rent out larger space at the Anna Templeton Centre when needed for public events. It doesn't match my initial vision of a barren, large, warehouse type space out in an industrial park -- but maybe this could be better for building the community.

James

I agree with James that a downtown location would be very helpful, and
the prices for Duckworth seem quite reasonable. While we might one
day move in to a larger space outside of downtown, our main focus
right now is getting a space that will help us bring in people and let
us start setting up equipment.
