    <font face="Courier New, Courier, monospace">I run a coworking space
      in Williamsburg center. I didn't mention this before because we
      haven't been fully open since March and couldn't offer space to
      Deb. But since the conversation has turned broader...<br>
      <br>
      It's Commons Coworking (<a moz-do-not-send="true"
        href="http://www.commonscoworking.com/">http://www.commonscoworking.com/</a>).
      We're a nonprofit and we've been in the former Helen E. James
      School building since 2016. Not quite fully rural but getting
      close (i.e. there's plenty of parking).<br>
      <br>
      We'll be figuring out how to open up again safely, within the next
      couple of months. First off, we'll let in our current members
      who've been on hold, but we will, of course, be open to others as
      well.<br>
      <br>
      If anyone thinks they might be interested, email
      <a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="mailto:info@commons.today">info@commons.today</a> and let us know and we'll be in touch when we
      have opening plans. <br>
