The wait is nearly over for local freelancers, small businesses and entrepreneurs looking for a collaborative workspace. CoWork Jax, the city’s first full-service coworking space will open its doors at the end of this month, kicking off with a celebration January 26 from 5:30 p.m.-7:30 p.m.

Located at 5 W. Forsyth St. in Downtown Jacksonville on the top floor of the historic Woolworth building, CoWork Jax occupies nearly 6,000 square feet and offers everything from conference rooms to collaboration areas to traditional  office amenities.

Designers and local professionals interested in membership can check out the variety of options online. Prices range from $25-$319 a month.

“We’re excited to finally open the doors and allow the community to make this space their own,” said Elton Rivas, co-founder and “chief coworker” for CoWork Jax, earlier this month. “CoWork Jax has been nearly a year in the making, and it’s an honor for us to bring this business to the local community.”

We wish them the best of luck!
