Spacious

Spacious turned idle restaurants into $29/day coworking, then sold to WeWork

Sam recounts founder Preston Pesek's company Spacious, which leased restaurants during their dead daytime hours and resold the space as hot-desk coworking for about $29 a day before WeWork acquired it.

“But Spacious, what it did originally was they would find restaurants that were only open at night or had most of their business from 6 to, you know, dinnertime. And they would do a coworking thing where they, you would pay a little bit of money, $29, I believe. And you would get access to, to, to use this restaurant as a coworking, uh, place.”
