Where is Swing Space?

Swing Space offers short-term occupancies of temporarily vacant spaces throughout downtown. We are constantly moving and acquiring new sites. In the past Swing Spaces have included empty office floors, closed retail stores, an abandoned printing factory, and a former bank. Click here to see current Swing Spaces.
