PHOENIX, Ariz. — July 16, 2019 — In keeping with its mission of serving and connecting modern businesses in an environment where they can focus on growth, The Department Coworking located at 1 N. First Street in downtown Phoenix, is adding another floor with 40 new offices and coworking space in order to meet the needs of growing companies in the Phoenix area. The expansion is set to open by August 30, 2019.

“It’s been amazing to see the business community here in the Phoenix area multiply since I became a member at The Department in 2015,” said John Herbold, CEO of Brushfire Interactive. “More and more companies like ours are looking at nontraditional space to establish their teams, and the new offices here at The Department are a perfect fit. It also doesn’t hurt that they offer the best prices in downtown Phoenix.” 

Premium Office Amenities at Affordable Prices

The new seventh floor private offices, team spaces, and coworking area will showcase the same mid-century modern aesthetic of the existing coworking space on the sixth floor. A large staircase connecting the two floors gives all Department Coworking members access to 28,000 square feet of coworking space including:

• Skyrise balconies
• 10 technology-enhanced conference rooms
• 6 private phone booths
• Nursing mothers room
• Onsite hospitality team
• Endless coffee, tea, and cold drinks
• Open kitchen with networking bar
