We may be a bit biased, but coworking is the shit. It’s the bee’s knees, the cat’s pajamas, the fox’s socks… You get it. But seriously, coworking is the sweet spot between a boring coffee shop and a melancholy cubicle. If you’re on the fence about whether you should join a coworking space, maybe this article will change your mind. 😏
1. We’re expanding
We’ve recently expanded to another floor in the Alberta Block building, now occupying ¾ of the 2nd floor and the entire 4th floor. With this (super exciting!!!) expansion, we’re now able to provide larger private office options. So if you’ve grown out of your 4-6 person office, you don’t have to leave us just yet.
2. It’s a networking goldmine
Homestead is known for encouraging a culture of collaboration and community. Being around like-minded people allows you to bounce ideas off one another and learn new things you wouldn’t have otherwise. In the same breath, Homestead is home to many different companies and independent consultants. Combine those two realities and you have the ideal networking environment!
3. Perks, perks, perks
We have partnerships with local businesses across the city! From lawyers & accountants to yoga studios and universities, we consistently look for valuable partners to bring on so that our members get the opportunity to save money or learn something new.
4. We’re flexible
We pride ourselves on our flexibility. We get that one size doesn’t fit all, so we have a ton of different membership options to meet almost anyone’s request. Need a space 24/7? We got you. Only want to come around a couple times a week? Yep, we have a membership for that. Have a special request? We’re all ears.
5. Every day is bring your dog to work day!
Is your canine your sidekick? That’s cool, bring them to work with you. The Alberta Block building (Homestead’s homebase) is 100% dog-friendly. Not to mention, our staff are pretty much obsessed with dogs and will be more than excited to meet your furry friend.
6. We’re all about work-life balance
“All work and no play” is something you will never experience at Homestead. While providing special spaces for members to relax and recharge, we also plan members-only social events to get to know one another. The choice to come to these events is yours—but trust us when we say these events are f u n.
7. We provide free coffee (and sometimes beer)
Enough said.
8. We’re downtown
Forgot your lunch? No problem, there’s ~30 restaurants within walking distance. Feel the need to hit the gym at lunch? All good, there’s a gym (that we have a partnership with!) right around the corner.

Basically what we’re trying to say is… once you go coworking, you never go back. Come on by for a free day of coworking to see if Homestead is right for you!
