The Brooklyn Makery

I’m very excited to announce my latest project: I recently leased a beautiful commercial loft in Williamsburg, Brooklyn, with plans of turning it into a co-working space. Now I’m busy bringing together writers, entrepreneurs, early-stage startups and freelancers with the goal of creating an enriching, cross-pollinating environment where people making great things can make even better things when they’re surrounded by others doing the same. 

We’re all thoughtful, intelligent, creative people, and we’re all passionate about making wonderful stuff—and we want to do it around other thoughtful, intelligent, creative people.

So we started The Makery, and we’re opening up shop on the first of September.

So far our inaugural lineup—our “maker’s dozen”—includes Immerss, Jauntsetter, Vowch, Bnter, two different YCombinators, and more—and we’ve still got some space available, so if you’re working on something wonderful and you think it would help your project if you got off your sofa or out of your garage then we just might have a desk for you.

Keep an eye on makery.org, and if you think you might be interested in some space feel free to reach out to me directly via langer [at] makery [dot] org.
