Working at Downtown Works is not about having someplace to work, it is about having a community. Aside from the beautiful and functional environment, the staff at Downtown Works is what sets this co-working space apart from any other. They are not about rules, regulations and corporate compliance, but rather comfort, productivity and growth. The environment promotes success and creativity. No matter your profession, you become part of the team. The staff goes above and beyond to promote business growth and connections between other members. This San Diego workplace reflects what San Diego is all about, work hard, play hard and soak up the positive vibes!

Downtown Works offers more than a community of driven, like-minded entrepreneurs and businesses. It’s a breathtaking space that makes you want to come in and get to work. As a copywriter, this is key to creating great work for my clients. The natural light and views inspire my brain in ways a coffee shop doesn’t! The team also provides a variety of tools and resources, like weekly lunch & learns for continued learning and ongoing events. They encourage new ideas and concepts, like the yoga sessions I now get to lead here. (Yes, there a lot of members with multiple interests and projects at DW!) On a final note: The people are fantastic. Them – and the coffee + latte machine.

Downtown Works not only offers an amazing, modern space, but the staff are extremely helpful and always available and willing to help. Downtown Works is the only co-working space nearby my house that has event space large enough to host one of our monthly event series. It makes it really convenient for me since I don’t have to host events off-site and can have them right in the same office space. My organization also hosts many committee meetings, and Downtown Works has a variety of conference rooms large enough to accommodate our group. As the only full-time employee of my organization, being able to work out of a co-working space is a great opportunity to be surrounded by passionate, hard-working individuals. I wasn’t looking for a co-working space for networking, but to my surprise, I’ve made quite a few connections in the space that I’ve been able to work or collaborate with which is really great.

I love Downtown Works for so many reasons. Not only is it a beautiful place to bring clients, the community there is filled with movers and shakers who want to see you succeed. It’s a refined group of success driven people with staff that are so attentive to our needs, supportive of our goals and fun to chat with. We love the variety of events there and the opportunities being a community member has provided us.

DW is the perfect place for WIT because of the focus on community, collaboration and connection. WIT has already worked with other companies and individuals at DW, which is exactly what I was hoping for when we made the choice to move to DW. We didn’t want just an office, we wanted a community, and that’s what we have found at DW.    I met one of the founders at a dinner and when described what they were creating, I was intrigued. I was familiar with all the other cowork spaces in San Diego and none of them were a fit for WIT. When I came for a tour (when it was still a construction site), I was blown away by the space/design. I was also really interested in the type of community the founders were committed to creating. I’m happy to say that DW has exceeded my expectations. I was looking for a space that would be more than just an office. WIT is a company based on community and collaboration, so I wanted to find a cowork space that also valued those things – DW does and so do the people who office out of DW.
