This page has been archived. All information in this article is historical.Jeremy, Justin, and myself (Jay) spent some time this morning looking at space on the third floor of 250 McDermot Avenue. It's $875/month (1 year lease) for 750sqft with utilities included. Rather then attempt to describe the space in detail, I'd like to direct everyone to the photos that Jeremy and Justin took:

My primary concern with this location is that of access. The building itself is locked to the public at 6:00pm. Tenants are given keys to access the building after hours. Unfortunaly, to give our members 24 hour access (or even basic evening access), we will have to be responsible for a lot of keys to the building. To review the space requirements document (http://www.skullspace.ca/wiki/index.php/Physical_space_requirements):
