The leadership of the boardroom and some of their long term members form a clique, and threatened…read moremy livelihood by being openly hostile while I was trying to conduct business on numerous occasions. There are things I like about the Boardroom. Facilities are excellent. Ease of use and access are a really great. Ostensibly, people are nice. But since they interfered with my business and I was a paying customer, 1 star or less is appropriate. It is not easy to get work done privately, and sometimes people are so obnoxious it makes one wonder if anyone is actually working, or if they just use the inexpensive office space as an opportunity to pretend they have jobs and businesses, and co-workers. I'm for co-working, but I'm not for businesses taking positions against tenants, and "collaborating" on matters that should be private. I come from work in a professional corporate setting in companies across the United States, and this work environment does not approximate that kind of work environment. It looks like it might, but it does not. As I write this I wonder to myself. Will they actually listen, or will they just increase hostility?

The Boardroom is a great co-working space that you can rent space at to work your business at or…read morehost presentations. A lot of people with an entrepreneurial spirit that you can get to know and maybe even collaborate with tend to frequent this place. Nice atmosphere and a really cool way to get work done that is more of an "out of the box" type mentality. I like attending the weekly 1 Million Cups presentations and the Start Up Weekend projects that they host.

I first discovered rage city through an event they were holding and fell in love- I love vintage…read moreand thrifting, and having a small local business to give my money too over a big corporation is always preferred. I love that they don't exclusively sell vintage, they also curate local artists wares so there is a nice blend of retro and new. The vibes in this shop are also great, I never feel weird browsing around or asking questions, and the folks behind the counter are always very helpful and kind. The prices tend to vary based on what you're buying, but to me seem very fair. Overall I would definitely recommend stopping by, you'll probably find something you didn't know you needed!

From the owner: We are Rage City Vintage. We believe that Anchorage deserves a space for the weirdos and creatives…read moreof all ages in our town to gather, shop and collectively sell their wares.

This event facility is recently built located on Arctic Road…read more I've attended a community event, a private event, and concerts here. It is one of few Anchorage event facilities available to rent, that can hold over 150 people. Parking is ample and the building is secluded enough from neighboring homes. The facility includes a coffee shop/cafe area that you can choose to be open during your event. The facility kitchen is large and open. You have the ability to choose what spaces you want to rent, with the largest space being the gym. If your event has alcohol you will be required to rent the facility as a whole. I like that all rental information to include costs, deposits, etc is laid out clearly online. You will not need to contact anyone directly until you are ready. I believe they even have bouncy houses available to rent. Like most facilities, they have staff there watching. Sometimes they're cool, sometimes they're annoyingly saying the music is too loud when we in the crowd, can barely hear it. Gotta take the good with with the bad ya know?!

Sort of like the Spenard Rec Center, but smaller and newer. I'm not sure about all of the…read morebuildings offerings, but they have basketball courts, a coffee shop inside, a couple meeting or party rooms (you can rent for bday parties), and I think they run a daycare too. Coffee shop staff is super nice, decent/regular prices. If your kid is going to a basketball program (like mine is), make sure you sign them in. You have to- for liability purposes. We didn't for basketball games, but for practice yes. They host Halloween events (and possibly other holiday events) that I've seen too, just haven't been able to go to them. Bathrooms and pretty much everywhere in general is clean and staff is nice.

Let's start this out by saying.... This is a private club during normal hours…read more However, this venue is available to rent and is perfect for metal, punk shows as well as a downtown throw down spot. The rent is reasonable and the owners are very accommodating. The upstairs is available for private events and features a small stage, sound system, kitchen, and patio. Great place to have a kick ass party without pissing off the neighbors.
