TEQ Startup Project: Bruno Works
As part of the TEQ Startup Project (TSP), we’ve been hanging out at AlphaLab getting to know the latest class of tech startups. We’re also making our rounds to check out Pittsburgh’s co-locating spaces. These are the sweet parts in the city where startups are sharing spaces and resources and, hopefully, ideas, too! Here’s a little insight on Bruno Works:
The colocation craze that has swept through Pittsburgh’s neighborhoods has now entered downtown with Eve Picker’s latest real estate venture Bruno Works.
Located at 945 Liberty Avenue above the ToonSeum, Picker’s Bruno Works has created an affordable option for startups looking to land their first professional digs. She also runs her businesses No Wall Productions and We Do Property from the site.
The well-worn wood floors, brushed steel, warm color palate, pervasive smell of fresh coffee and all around kick-ass vibe of the space appears to be a fitting place for young tech companies to call home. Picker likes to call them “tiny little startups.”
More than a dozen individuals have claimed desk/office space and Picker says there is room for at least 40 to fill the two floors.
Having made a name for herself as an expert in inner city regeneration, specifically downtowns, Picker believes colocation sites like Bruno Works are perfect for creating synergistic connections.
“One of the best things about Bruno Works is the low cost rent, the place is ideal for small businesses and entrepreneurs who are looking for an office space
in a prime location, such as Downtown Pittsburgh, who may be operating on a small budget,” said Taylor Durham, CEO of Dark Horizons, a start-up video production company.
“The layout of Bruno Works is incredible because it’s not the traditional cubicle office I think so many of us are used to. There’s an open kitchen area, multiple conference rooms, a lounge area and an open space studio to gather for large projects or meetings. Honestly, I don’t think you’ll find anything like this in the area that presents this cozy, laid back atmosphere in the middle of a fast-paced, bustling business district like Bruno Works, it’s definitely a rarity.”
Amenities at Bruno Works include a make station, mail boxes, high-speed internet, as well as printing, faxing, copying and shredding. For a small upgrade in cost, tenants can even get a permanent window seat. There is also a flex pass option to access the Beauty Shoppe in East Liberty.
