🏢 Location

We are located at 2760 Broad Street, Austell, Georgia 30106. Our facility overlooks Historic Broad Street in Downtown Austell.

🚂 If you get hung up by the train, an alternative route is available via Joe Jerkins Blvd aka The Bridge.

🅿️ Parking is currently available along Broad Street and at the Collar Park Community Center at the end of the street. You may also commute via rideshare, on foot or by bicycle.
Our campus includes lockers and a showering facility for active members.

🗝️ Accessing the Space

Our community manager will provide you with an access fob during onboarding. You may also choose to download the apps below to use your smartphone as your key. Please note that the software may require you to re-authenticate logins periodically. The key fob is the most stable option.

🚫 Member & Facility Rules 

💻 Hot Desk Policy

Your hotdesk membership is like a gym membership, and the desks are gym equipment: once you wrap up for the day, please leave your desk as you found it.

Need to keep your workspace gear here permanently? No problem!

Please speak to our team about upgrading to a dedicated desk option.

You’ll notice a few stations here that belong to our dedicated desk members along the wall and near the community manager desk.

🦉 Access Hours & 🔒 Security

You will be able to access Cowork anytime you like using your digital key or FOB.

The space is constantly monitored via our cloud-based security cameras,
and the front door is to remain locked at all times.

You are not at liberty to open the doors to non-members or the general public.

Known staff, uniformed delivery drivers (with U.S. mail or packages), City of Austell employees on-duty and first responders are the exception to the rule. If a staff member is present, they can answer the door.

If you don’t see a staff member, contact our team before considering opening a door
(Reach us at 404.931.1320 during normal business hours).

🔒 Access Issues & Lost Passwords


If you forget your smartphone during business hours, you may use the lockbox outside for incidentals. Please use the help channel in Slack or contact 404.931.1320 via text message for the combination or other access issues

Outside of business hours, your access is your responsibility.

👥 Guest Policy

You may bring a guest with you. Your guest is your responsibility, so please share our guidelines with your guests.

Hosting Meetings
You’re welcome to bring in a small group of guests for a meeting when you’re scheduling the use of conference tables.

Membership Limitations
If you’re habitually bringing an employee or family member with you as a guest, please understand that our membership dues cover you, not your team or family — we do offer a two-person membership upgrade, just speak to our team about it.

🔎 Navigating The Space at Cowork

The space is open but divided into a few primary areas. We’ve been very thoughtful about sound and volume levels throughout the space:

The front lounge areas and the meeting areas are meant for community. We want folks to be able to have in-person conversations. Small in-person meetings and chatting are totally fine. 

The desk gallery areas where people are actively working are intended for focus.

Phone calls and zooms are meant to be taken with consideration of other members.
While you’re free to Zoom into meetings from your desk, be mindful of your volume. If you are taking a Zoom call from your desk, you need to have headphones on – nobody wants to know what Todd from HR had for breakfast this morning. If you’ve only got a call or two, we recommend using our phone booth!

🛟 Reserve the phone booth or meeting area

To use our phone booth in the Cincinnati Junction building or one of the meeting areas inside Cowork are for members. The general public may not book spaces. These meeting spaces be reserved in order to use (no drop-ins) as people rely on getting them at specific times. You may book up to two hours per day in the phone booth or main conference area. Booking a room is always fast and free at austellcowork.com/reserve – it takes just 20 seconds.

Please note: Austell Cowork is no longer available for private events.

🍦Food @ Cowork

When it comes to food, we get it. You gotta eat!

That said, we do ask that you follow a couple of simple guidelines:

  1. 👃🤢Be respectful of your neighbors when you’re eating: don’t put last week’s tuna sandwich in the microwave, and make sure you leave the space the way you found it: don’t leave out any food, and clean up after yourself (nobody wants to call pest control).
  2. 👍 Be respectful of the quiet zone
  3. 🧊The community fridge is for your lunch and a couple of snacks.
    It’s not a place for science experiments or to keep 3 month’s worth of food 😉
  4. 🗑 Put your waste in its space as labeled.

🎧 Music @ Cowork

Don’t mess with the music. If there’s an issue, let our team know, but do not tinker with the system.

  1. Don’t listen to music without headphones. If you’re trying to jam out to Reba’s Greatest Hits or whatever it is the cool kids like, jam out with your headphones on 🎧or go for a ride!
    Just don’t make your playlist become OUR playlist, k?

📽️ Projector Use

If there’s an issue, let our team know. Do not tinker with the system.

If you are giving a presentation, please review the SOP on connecting your laptop or device to the projector.

❄️ Climate Control @ Cowork

Some like it hot, some don’t. We do our best to set the climate control to a comfortable temperature. We recommend keeping a hoodie or blanket around if you’re the type of person who’s always cold.
If there’s an issue with climate control, please reach out to our team.

🛠️ Facilities Upkeep & Customer Service

Since our space is 24/7, we will not have staff on-site at all hours. We will, however, be constantly monitoring the space and will have our team physically checking in on it every day. If something needs our attention, please contact the community manager on Slack.
