Green Desk Coworking - Dumbo — Local services in New York

I have been renting space from Green Desk continuously since 2014. I cant imagine moving to any other building. Ill start with my building manager Justine. She is absolutely fantastic and really cares about the tenants. It is a pleasure walking into the building when you know the building manager cares. The company really seems to try hard to accomodate their tenants. They have helped me with everything from temperature control to tech issues. Over the years, their corporate office has helped me troubleshoot some issues as well. They are very ego free in that way. Their dumbo buildings are all very clean, comfortable and impressive to clients. Ive seen all of their buildings and they are all great. I really cant say enough good things about them and their building manager Justine. I love it here. Their are a lot of professionals in the building as well ranging from attorneys, cpa's, digital marketing, I even used a physical therapy office in one of their buildings(not sure if its still there but he was...

Okay, I'm sympathetic. I'm not a big deal, I don't pay them all that much money, and they don't have many stable tenants. They need revenues if they intend to remain a going concern. So it is with SYMPATHY that I warn you: The post-pandemic transition makes tenancy here increasingly untenable. They rent out the event space on the ground floor (they'll play loud music for parties) (honestly not sure how that's covid-legal these days anyway) and they rented out the glass-walled office next to me for a photoshoot so I got a blinding flash blinking in my eyes while I'm over here trying to get exotic distributed filesystems to work with the supercomputers used for people fighting COVID and the like. Blink! Blink! Blink! Management helpfully informs me there's "nothing we can do about it." Oof.

Besides that, good people, adequate building, nice Dumbo location — you might worry about noise from the train on the bridge, but it's not actually a problem at all...

Greendesk has been an important part of the growth of our company. We started with a desk (very affordable), then moved to an office (also a great deal) and then we grew to multiple offices and finally to a large office. The surrounding neighborhood and view is very inspiring and filled with energy. One of the benefits of Greendesk has been their flexibility with us and their wonderful staff. Justine, who manages 155 Water where we are located, creates a cheerful atmosphere and always attends to our needs ASAP. The other benefit at our location is the community. We have cross pollinated with many of the other wonderful companies that occupy our building. This is a great deal for any startup that is...
