Steve J.O.
Great place for an out of towner to get a four hour zoom call made. Nick and Becky were very helpful to get me settled in. Thanks
Peter Kirkwood
A comfortable, convenient, stylish, and welcoming place to work, meet, and network. Highly recommended.
Rachel Meyers
Absolutely love this place for remote working while in TC. There is no other place I have visited across the country with such a unique facility. What makes this place so unique, ease of buying a day pass, reliable wifi, plenty of clean working spaces along with phone booths for private calls, a lovely cafe with a delicious BLT and great coffee, plenty of friendly folks you will meet, and then there is this view. I really can't speak more highly of this unique space. I wish Nick and team continued success and I cannot wait for my next visit to TC to work in this space.

I’m in town once a month and randomly came across this place. Fantastic workspace - it’s open and welcoming and helped me stay productive. Loved it and definitely will be back!
Frequently Asked Questions
-
While storage in coworking spaces is generally limited, and mostly reserved for members with dedicated desks or private offices, you should always check with the coworking operator about additional storage solutions. Fill out the form on the right side of the page to reach out to them and learn all about the available options.
-
Open desks may be the ideal choice if you thrive in a collaborative environment and value the opportunity to connect with fellow coworkers. Dedicated desks, on the other hand, provide a designated space with shared community amenities, catering to those who seek a balance between privacy and interaction.
For ultimate focus and private interactions, private offices are best for solo individuals and teams that seek uninterrupted productivity.
Selecting the most suitable workspace for you typically hinges on your work style and preferences, but it can also be determined by the type of work that you do, its duration, and whether you work alone or in a team.
-
Grove Community Incubator operates during regular business hours, which are listed above. For any requests or requirements outside of these hours, please contact the coworking operator directly.
-
Flexibility is the cornerstone of coworking, so you always have the option to adjust your workspace to match your current needs. With month-to-month memberships, you can effortlessly upgrade, downgrade, or even switch between different coworking plans.
While the standard practice is to change memberships only once the current one ends, Commonplace may be able to offer additional options, so it’s best to reach out to their staff directly.
-
Most coworking space amenities are open to all members, regardless of the membership plan. Meeting rooms require prior reservation, and private offices are exclusively available to those with subscription packages. However, the lounge, kitchen, and breakout spaces are open to everyone. Complimentary amenities are also available to all, while ancillary services can be purchased or negotiated individually with Commonplace.
