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.
  • Proximity to other groups doing interesting things that we can collaborate or cross-pollinate with (like Bay Area Public School)
