If you've always wanted to bring your dog to the office or grab a healthy juice in between conference calls, your workplace dreams are coming true.
ALX Community will be opening the doors to Founders Hall at 106 N. Lee St. in mid-April, according to Philip Brady, membership manager. The name of the space was inspired by nearby Founders Park.
On a recent early morning visit, the two-story space was crawling with workers busy renovating the space, a brick building with high ceilings and large windows that last housed a bridal boutique.
