Working (Not) From Home in the Hudson Valley

As the world continues to adjust to the new normal, Hudson Valley workers are looking for alternatives to working from home or their local coffee shop. While at the start of the pandemic, it was safer and easier to hunker down on the couch with your laptop, after more than a year of remote work – with no end in sight – local entrepreneurs and remote workers are seeking a more permanent local situation.  

 

Whether you’re craving community, structure, or simply an escape from your day-to-day, Inside+Out is happy to connect you with this list of five distinct cowork spaces in the Hudson Valley.
