Yes, but if the space is so limited that it doesn't provide a good
experience, it could potentially backfire. If it has even barely
adequate power then in the short term I agree it would be a good thing.
And if Court 'n' Cedar can't provide a restroom, maybe we could arrange
something with Woodstocks in exchange for eating their pizza and
drinking their beer.

Having not been in the space myself, I'll defer to those who have with
respect to its adequacy.

Plus, I've got some stuff taking up space in storage that I'd loan, and
my company has a bunch of assorted Steelcase modular furniture bits
which I'm pretty sure we can donate if DCW finds them useful.
