Laurea’s take on We Create and Wix Lounge on Sept...
We usually visit one space and stay for the day but on this rainy day we decided to try two places that were pretty close to each other - We Create located on 58 East 11th Street (between Broadway and 4th Avenue) on the 8th floor and Wix Lounge located on 10 West 18th Street (near 5th Avenue) on the 2nd floor.

First post by Laurea! New Work City visit on...
I am excited that the Fall has started off with the exploration of co-working spaces with Martha. Checking out co-working spaces was something I had been thinking of doing but never got around to until Martha suggested we explore them together. She said she would never get around to doing it unless she had someone else motivating her and of course I was in the same boat so finally we decided to...
