What we do

As a local community center, New Work City centers around three things:

Coworking

Work once in a while

If you need a place to work, but not all the time, our most popular memberships are part-time memberships, which range from a few days a month to a few days a week.

Work for a day

No appointment necessary. Just show up with a laptop and a friendly disposition. You'll be good to go.

Work all the time

Crank away on your startup 24/7. Our new space has spots you could hole yourself up in for as long as your neighbors can stand the smell and growing pile of energy drink cans.

Work with others

If you're working alone at home and are tired of having one-way conversations with your cat, you can find great people to socialize with while you get your work done here.

Work by yourself

If you just need a place to crank away uninterrupted, we're cool with that too. Put on a pair of headphones and we'll leave you alone.

Have meetings

Invite partners, vendors, clients, investors, friends, and whoever else you need to work with. You'll have a variety of collaborative areas and meeting rooms at your disposal.

EventsSee upcoming events >>

Attend any of the below, or host your own! The space is here for the community to make use of.

Meetup groups

Of all sorts of shapes and sizes.

Hackathons

Crank away all weekend long with like-minded folks.

Crisis Camps

Special weekend events dedicated to building solutions to urgent world issues.

Developer Groups

Django NYC, Python, Ruby, and more-- when you organize them!

NY Night Owls does awesome coworking sessions from 9pm to 3am every Tuesday. Read about it in the 7/26 NY Times!

BarCamp organizer meetings

Volunteers planning various BarCamps will always have a free place to gather.

A weekend-long event where people form teams and build startups. The relationships that get formed are even better. 

Brainstorm events

Come with an idea, or don't-- you'll be able to learn what others are working on and help them overcome the challenges they're facing. You just might learn something yourself along the way!

Launch Parties

Members launching new projects can kick things off in style. We did it for KeenKong last year and had a blast.

Education

Teach a class

Grow your brand, sharpen your skills, and make some cash-- teach a class on anything you like in our classroom space.

Learn how to be a (better) independent

Attend our classes, all of which are geared toward helping you start or improve your life as an independent.

A special education program focused on helping women learn how to become developers. How cool is that.

Values

Community
New Work City is a community first and a business second. The latter exists to serve the interests of the former, not the other way around.

Independence
New Work City is run and sustained by the members of the community. It is not subject to the interests of a third party.

Accessibility
New Work City is open to anyone who will participate in the community and respect fellow citizens.

Sustainability
In two ways: New Work City is designed to be a self-sustaining organization, so that it can exist and help people for a very long time. By providing a place that encourages sharing, we are also playing our part to create a more self-sustaining society.
