Cute space!

Local Works has been so kind to me as I look to expand EY's reach into the Charleston area. Steve Fletcher is creative in his approach and provided me with day-passes for a short time to allow me to get a feel for the space. He then found a permanent spot for me on a temporary basis to allow me to have a more consistent experience. Finally, Steve has been instrumental in helping me find more permanent office space in Charleston. Although there is not space here at Local Works for a full office, Steve is connecting me with the right people to help with my permanent office needs. Being from Charleston, I am so grateful for what Local Works does to help early-starts like mine get their bearings. I would recommend Local Works to anyone!

Great co-op space for a variety of reasons. Its hands down the most community focused of all the co-working space and they are a great resource for the Charleston community.
1859 Summerville Avenue is open during regular business hours listed above. For any other requirements, make sure to contact the operator directly.
Yes, you can certainly take a tour of the space before signing up for a membership. In fact, it’s encouraged, to help you get a feel for what your workday will look like. Reach out here to set up a time to come and see the space.
The open desk is the way to go if you’re looking for a flexible workspace in an open environment where you can socialize with other members. Or, choose a dedicated desk if you want a designated space that also allows you to keep in touch with the community.
A private office works wonders if you or your team need a quiet, secluded space to conduct your work and interact with people in your organization.
It’s important to understand the different types of coworking arrangements available to you, depending on the type of work that you do and its duration, and whether you’re a solo worker or part of a team.
Most, if not all, amenities are available to you as a member, regardless of the type of membership. Some shared spaces, like the meeting rooms, need to be booked in advance and private offices are only available for those with a subscription. However, all the other areas, like the lounge, kitchen and breakout spaces, are usable by every member. All complimentary services are available and anything ancillary can be purchased or negotiated with Local Works.
Storage in coworking spaces can be limited, with most of it reserved for members with dedicated desks and private offices. However, you can reach out to the coworking operator using the form on the right side of the page to see what options are currently available.
