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.

There is street parking but I am unsure of any other place that they have. When you first walk in you can't help but notice the open space and everyone working, I immediately went into work mode. There are so many different nooks to choose from for working I opted for a space by the window. They also have different rooms that you can use. All of the people there are pleasant. Overall nice space. Grateful I was able to see inside.

This is a beautiful space on South Harrington Street in the Warehouse district. Like many areas in…read morethe warehouse district, parking is complicated, but just drive around the block with the same strategy that you have when you go to Humble Pie (across the street) or The Pit (around the corner). Nice hardwood floors. High ceilings. Steel beams. Modern fixtures. Abstract art. Open space. A great venue for events like the one I attended tonight with a wide great room and some small rooms off to the side. As the daughter of a builder, I was impressed with the design and the layout too. As a sometimes event planner, I also appreciated. Nicely done. When you're networking, you want to be able to see well and move around easily. From what I learned tonight, this is also a great location for start-ups, entrepreneurs, small businesses and people who just need an office space. It's collaborative and friendly with the allowance for your own work space. In addition to the networking event tonight, I did talk to some people who actually work in offices there. They said it could be a little hard to concentrate at times with people coming and going or playing music with such open spaces. Downstairs I saw a ping-pong table and large counter-space. Apparently sometimes they have food there. My new friend pointed out that it can also be a little distracting knowing there's beer on tap downstairs... maybe so, but I relax a little after a drink and work better (no, I'm serious -- did most of my top notch graduate work with wine in hand). But, we're all different. There are some really neat businesses at home at HQ Raleigh though. Really neat to check something like this out for myself.

Had an office here for two years. I missed the email about my lease auto renewing because I was…read morehelping take care of my dying father. Right after it auto renewed I asked them for another week to review the lease so I could make a decision on what I was going to do but they would not accommodate and said that the auto renewal was in my original lease agreement so there was nothing they could do. My rent nearly doubled form the original. So expect significant jumps if you're going to renew. In the welcome email make sure you see the small print that they will charge you a "restoration fee" when you leave which the email said was $3.5 per square feet. Small print and easy to miss. Now they are trying to charge me 4.5 per square feet due to market changes which is a nearly $500 charge. They collections also called me and said they needed to collect two months of rent that weren't paid several months ago. I sent them the bank statement that shows I paid it. Something is very screwed up with their billing. They aren't going to release my $1,600 retainer until all this is resolved. This place does not work with you. The people at the office blame corporate and say you have to deal with them. Theres no number for them you just have to send an email and hope for a response. Very frustrating. With the amount they charge for rent they could at least provide free coffee. But they actually tripled the price per cup since I started.

I had seen an ad on FB for an event sponsored by Fever. It was a Halloweenish event so it looked liked something different to do to kick off Oct. Tickets have to be bought a head of time for a specific date & time. Chairs are set up in a dimly lit room with a bookshelf cabinet as the main focal point which was on the opposite end of the chairs. The bookshelf had spooky looking objects on it. Through out the hour & 1/2 of the show, you are given 4 different cocktails while one at a time a group of 5 adults take turns telling a ghost story as the others serve the coctails. Unfortunately The drinks were a bit watered down and didn't seem like they actually had alcohol in them. The drinks seemed random which I think it would make more sense if they matched the stories somehow or at least were in the actual story. The storytellers were dressed to match the spooky mood and some did better than others. I thought they were going to be Raleigh ghost stories and maybe they were but there wasn't enough local knowledge in the stories. Not sure if the event was worth the cost but it was something different. After the show the adults told the audience that their group of 5 does it all:sets the stage, does the lighting, the music, decorates, makes the drinks, serves them & provides the entertainment. After I heard this I have to admit I definitely felt ok paying the cost for the event. If you like local theater, this is a great idea for something different to do on a weekend night.
