Nice one Alex, congrats. I will await my invite to your opening party :wink:

And interesting to see you still have the same battle with local press on the ‘co-working’ hyphen thing!

Thanks Tom!

It feels good to know that we’ve got a great new home, and I’ll be sharing a lot of the process and lessons learned over the last 10 months as the dust settles and yes, party invites will go out soon :wink:

What’s cute (sarcasm) about this story is how they called our broker instead of us to rush a story full of errors to press. I’m working with a couple of local journos on a much better, accurate story to come out soon.

Amazingly, the Biz Journal folks were tipped about the news from my own tweet but didn’t think to, um, reply and ask me for an interview. The original title was “Coworking Firm Moves To Old City” which is hilarious because we’ve been in Old City Philadelpjia for 9 years. :slight_smile:

Our members and friends got a good laugh (more of a groaning laugh but a laugh nonetheless) out of their carelessness.

Sadly, I’ve found this kind of “ready fire aim” journalism is pretty typical for the BizJournal with a few reporter exceptions. I’ll deal with the hyphen if the article isn’t riddled with facial errors, but this one gets both.

Good news is that this kind of press serves one real need for me - it’s something I can send it home to my mom.

#journalism,

-Alex
