  <div style="color:#888888;margin-left:35px"><div><br><div>A pleasure to meet some of you last night.
 For those not present, I was part of a crew trying to launch a 
hackerspace in West Oakland over the summer. Plans fell through, but am 
very excited to have a second opportunity to cocreate a space like this 
in Oakland :)</div>

<div><br></div><div>Here is the old Redmine on which we were planning 
and plotting, scheming and dreaming:</div><a href="http://neocreativist.azirepraps.com/" target="_blank">http://neocreativist.azirepraps.com/</a><div><br><div>The
 image paths need to be fixed; they are basic floorplans and photos of 
the building(s). The project got put on pause because the landlord was 
going to put up 50K to get the sprinkler systems up to code but was 
stymied by his ex-wife  >_<<div>

<br></div><div>Plans included a RASH community computer lab, a wetlab, a
 softlab (for sewing & clothesmaking), a fablab, a foodlab, upstairs
 living spaces, a 'coffin hotel' next to the kitchen, vertical and 
rooftop gardens (we have a very nice 3D model of this my friend Evan 
made in SketchUp) and probably some things I am forgetting.</div>
