We've signe up a few coworkers but we have some challenges, not the least is the Olympics. On one had we will be the first coworking space that is an Olympic Art Installation on the other hand as a result of that we're basically offering two months free for people who sign up for six months as February will be nuts and people may find it more productive to stay away from Olympic sites. We're willing to accomodate people during February on another floor, but the main 2000+ coworking space will be, well we don't know. We said no a couple times but in the end relented and we're having an art installation. Trippin's Sheng High, which you can see makes a little more noise and takes up well a lot more space than art we normally have. http://www.trimpinmovie.com/ One thing we're doing is partnering with local galleries and artists to have their work displayed in the main coworking space and it will rotate, normally it will just be paintings with a few sculptures but due to our connections to the Olympics and Chinatown we're getting this giant installation for a month.

Are you part of the new space on Pender? It sounds like its a non-profit. A friend, Rahel Bailey, used to work at Workspace I think. Good Luck! Glad it was helpful.

We're starting up a coworking space in Vancouver to help offset the loss of Workspace to the community and I was trying to make the case that the income from your coworkers isn't the biggest value generated.
