<< Back to Sudo Room Approaches
Estimate of Current Cost for a Space
- Details coming from Marc:
Precise Constraints
Check this list for up-to-date constraints
Minimum Requirements
Our absolute minimum for a space:
- BART is close by
- Disability / wheelchair access
- Vehicle parking (motor and human-powered) is possible.
- Bathroom
- Sink (at least one, but preferably outside of bathroom)
- Late access (preferably 24 hour)
- Ability to make some noise (at least event noise)
- Internet
- Electricity
- Security and privacy
- e.g. not a hallway or shared access with other tenants we don't know.
- Landlord must either support the idea or be agnostic to it--not against.
Flexible Agilities
Things we are flexible about--that put us at an advantage to landlords:
- Can deal with no heat/air (Is this an agility? Actually, heat is pretty important, we should be able to be comfortable and invite guests who can be reasonably comfortable at our events).
- Carpet or flooring not important
- Can live without amenities or luxuries.
- Windows are nice, but open to non-windowed spaces.
- Little to no build-out necessary for initial space.
- Can move in very soon.
Other Requirements
Things we should keep in mind beyond the bare minimum:
- Min size: ___ Max size: ___
- Min price: ___ Max price: ___
Bonus
Amenities and other bonuses--a "wish list" if you will:
- Roof access
- Vehicle parking (motor and human-powered) is readily available and secure or private.
- BART is extremely close.
- Landlord loves us.
- Combined residential zoning / accommodation.
Options/Sources
- Occupy Oakland list of open spaces
- List from Oscar Grant Plaza Gazette: http://www.occupyoakland.org/2011/10/the-oscar-grant-plaza-gazette-saturday-october-15-2011-day-7/
- Apparently, this is a list compiled from publicly accessible data on bank website. Would be a cool hackerproject to scrape & map this data!!!
- Note: unless you are planning to squat, these will be more work to obtain. You have to buy them, banks are not in the business of renting out properties
- Craigslist
- Possible space with TechLiminal on 14th and Harrison
- Anca has suggested we could pay to use their space, store some of our stuff. Note: Techliminal is still perfectly happy to host our meetup for free.
- The Holdout (related to Occupy Oakland) opportunity for "Collectives".
- 2313 San Pablo Big green building
