Coworking Space Opening in Forest Hills

I have been contacted about a new coworking space opening soon in Forest Hills with the goal of bringing technology, creativity, and innovation to central Queens.

The Austin Space is described a premier coworking space located in central Queens, coming soon in October 2016.

The organizers see the workspace as "perfect for freelancers, contractors, independent business owners, startups, remote workers, or just anyone that wants a space away from home."

And they have a Kickstarter campaign to get this workspace up and coming: http://kck.st/2bbCSNW

Here's some more detail from their website:

Conveniently located in the heart of Forest Hills and right by Austin Street and 71st Continental Ave, The Austin Space is a spacious two floor collaborative workspace with an outdoor patio, lounge areas, and meeting rooms. It is a premier shared office space located in central Queens. The workspace is located one block from the E, F, M, R trains – a 15 minute subway ride from Manhattan – and one block from the Long Island Rail Road, connecting individuals to Long Island.

This workspace is perfect for freelancers, contractors, independent business owners, startups, remote workers, or just anyone that wants a space away from home. We hope that this space can turn into a thriving community for inspiration, creativity, and entrepreneurship.

  2. Nice! I work from home quite a bit, and having another option nearby would be great.

  4. FoHo is getting really grody and I'm surprised good biz establishments are moving in. The sidewalks are cracked and filthy, the hanging flower baskets are empty and the tree pits are full of weeds (at best) or sand (most cases) where other nabes have thoughtful arrangements of native perennials. No decent dog run without a car or long hike. No Citibikes and few bike racks. Depressing medians and sidewalk scapes along QB. We need to start thinking like Brooklynites.
