And now, ‘awesome’ outdoor pop-up office space in DUMBO
The scene under the vaulted Manhattan Bridge Archway on Thursday was an only-in-Brooklyn mixture of dining, drinking, mini-golf — and pop-up office workers, busily emailing and blogging in the shade.
Joining the Archway’s popular Brooklyn Flea pop-up food and beer event, Loosecubes — a company that matches offices with extra desks with people looking for desk space — operated a reserved section of picnic tables for the wandering self-employed.
“We’re running a series of awesome offices-for-a-day in unexpected locations like the Archway,” said Loosecube’s Yasmine Yu, whose official title at the company is “Commander Awesome.”
