Work space company WeWork is marking the October 2 opening of its first Jerusalem location with the construction of its first sukkah, located in the city’s First Station.
This alternative booth is open to the public between September 20-28, and offers some augmented services, including WiFi, a barista, and bartender, as befits a WeWork space.
The WeWork Sukkah aims to provide an office away from the office, with desks, a lounge area, and two conference rooms, offering visitors the opportunity to experience the comforts of a WeWork office space. The sukkah, built from all recycled and repurposed materials, will also be staffed with a DJ in the evenings.
WeWork’s new Jerusalem location, on King George Street in the former HaMashbir building, will be the ninth WeWork location in Israel, following five in Tel Aviv, one in Herzliya, one in Beersheba, and one in Haifa.
We can't do this work alone.
The war with Iran has been draining for all of us in Israel. But when I heard about a high casualty incident – ballistic missile impacts in Arad and Dimona that left nearly 200 people wounded – I drank a cup of coffee, packed a bag, and headed south.
There, I spoke with Shilgit, the head of an after-school program for underprivileged youth. Standing outside her destroyed center, Shilgit said it was a miracle that no children were hurt and spoke about the community coming together in the hours since.
As a Times of Israel reporter, I’m committed to telling stories of resilience like Shilgit’s. But my colleagues and I can't do this alone. If you value work like this, please consider joining our reader support group, The Times of Israel Community. Your financial support is essential to keep real human reporting like this going.
