Raleigh Iron Works is a mixed use development just outside downtown Raleigh. There are restaurants,…read moreshops, offices, a yoga studio, gym and apartments. Parking is available in several lots and there is also a parking garage. I hadn't been to RIW since it first opened and the parking and offerings have expanded with plans to keep expanding on the 19 acres with one more phase. The Peden Steel Company once operated on the property. I liked how remnants of that steel were used throughout the development as the property was redeveloped. The Bow Truss Building produced munition during World War I. Barges were produced during World War II. The original steel was used for the buildings; art; benches; planters; and monuments. The courtyard of the Double Gable Building shows the exposed steel. This is a nice area to sit outside and has a fireplace for when the temperature cools. Native plants were used for the landscaping, and a full-time horticulturist was hired. The native shrubs and perennials provide food for pollinators, and native plants need less water. I could tell that a lot of thought went into the selections for landscaping. There are murals on the property too, one near the parking garage, another outside of the parking garage that you can't miss driving by and another above the pool. On the last Saturday morning of the month, a history and art tour of Raleigh Iron Works is offered, where you can learn more about RIW.

It's a beautiful office space with solid amenities (ample workspaces, fast wifi, conference room, kitchen, good coffee, parking), and a nice community feel. Betsey the owner plans many events, and there are great networking opportunities, but there's never pressure to participate or socialize. The noise level is totally reasonable. It's basically the coolest office ever. AND it's in a perfect location. I loved working there and miss it a lot. I haven't been able to find another coworking space quite like it.

Lots of decent size conference rooms and many mini phone booths/rooms for calls. There's a bullpen which is open and airy with comfy couches and work tables, all appropriately socially distanced apart. The roof top has tables/seats for outdoor dining, which was lovely as we enjoyed nice weather to eat our lunch outside. It's close to eating places and stores so you can find most things within walking distance. Would come back again!

The windows open for good ventilation and it's a less than 5 minute walk to either the YMCA or Bolin Creek trail for exercise breaks. The CH bus system has a bus stop right out front which is convenient for meetings on campus.

The staff at Industrious is hospitable, helpful and motivated, making it easy to not have to worry about things such as mailing, random office supplies you may not have or other details you'd have to worry about at an office space entirely your own. The perks of the place really set it apart, from the fast wifi, reliable printing, breakfast, and snacks everyday as well as the abundance of activities that give you the opportunity to give your brain a break. I would recommend Industrious to anyone looking for a space to work out of.
