This is my favorite WeWork when I am in Chicago. The interior is magnificent and inspiring. A genius hung rotary phones from the bank era in the call booths. And the staff is superb, especially Renana at the front desk!

BEAUTIFUL environment to work in with tons of natural light. There are many nooks to nestle in to find your focus, and some of the conference rooms are downright stunning. The staff is friendly and the coffee is good. After years working from home, I'm so grateful for this We Work location!

Holy Christ this is one of the most beautiful things I've ever seen. It's literally breathtaking. And quiet, professionally managed, good execution on amenities as with every other WeWork. Everyone should come here at least once but I may work here every Friday from now on and I have an office downtown.

Beautiful, massive space. They kept all the original banking architecture some some people's offices look like they're in teller boxes which I think is super cool. Friendly staff, plenty of amenities. The space is big so sometimes it's hard to figure out the right phone booth to go to for your needs. If you look around enough you'll find either a spare room or small phone booth. As ppl have said it closes at 5pm which is a bummer, but no one has ever rushed me out of there.

Reliable internet, friendly staff, and excellent amenities despite their recent opening! Uptown is lucky to be home to Chicago’s first WeWork outside of the Loop!

Clean location, plenty of desks, good staff. Only complaints are that they close too early and they occasionally play music which is distracting and just unnecessary.

I co-worked here for about 9 months. The coffee they serve is really, unexplainably bad. Not sure why more people didn't complain to management (as I did). Anyway, it's so bad you'll go for tea instead. Second, they close the location on days that are holiday-ADJACENT. Yes, that's right, so it was closed on July 3 as well as July 4th, and for many days around Thanksgiving and Xmas -- I almost needed another coworking space just for the days they weren't open! The main reason this coworking spot didn't end up working for me is their disgusting, cynical take on what makes a hostile working environment. After hearing another coworker say aloud racial epithets and clear-cut racist threats, I lodged a complaint with management. They refused to move forward on the matter, and never consulted me about my experience. In fact, within a few days they abruptly sent me the coldest email imaginable, explaining nothing, and in fact terminated my membership. I'm not sure if it was because I'm a straight white male or because the racist coworker was paying more than me for an office, but their pathetic attitude toward healing wounds won't easily be forgotten. Research WeWork's fraudulent schemes and you'll see why this company ended up filing for bankruptcy. Maybe the place is simply rotten from the top down...

This place closes at 5 pm. It looks cool aesthetically but it’s not practical as a co working if it closes so early. Also the phone booths are too small to take video calls / have no tables (pictured below), and the smaller video call rooms have no windows. The staff were all very nice though, this review is for the WeWork admin not the staff.
