Nice space and big kudos for the exploration expedition... but I see a lot of fireworks, loitering, secret handshakes, and late-night gatherings of all sorts at the two parks and Bart station right nearby and especially outside ChaTime, my sometimes favorite downtown snack spot. Tracy's experience is worth noting for sure.

Um, not that I wouldn't support a space here, but your impression that it seems/feels safe there is wrong.  That is exactly where my kid was thrown to the ground in the middle of the street by three teenagers, with a gun held to her stomach, and robbed.  I won't even use that Bart station anymore.

Matt, Jenny and myself went and looked at another space that could potentially be a new sudo space.

We've started gathering information about it here:
My personal feeling about the space is:

This is an awesome space with lots of natural light. It addresses two of the major concerns raised about The Omni in being two blocks from BART in a neighborhood that seems/feels safer than the area around MacArthur BART, and in being located in a less gentrified neighborhood. The one drawback in comparing it to the current space and The Omni is the lack of a big separate common area for events. It is _very_ similar to Noisebridge in almost every way.
