The one in NYC is the hacker halfway house, I lived there for a short time 
(well before HOAP) and I was similarly surprised by HOAP getting such 
credit.

www.hackerhalfwayhouse.org - don't let shardy get started on how it's not 
really a hacker space ;)

Also there is the walnut factory in philly, it's been around for ages.
