We caught up with them to learn more about how their new space, MEET at the Apartment, was evolving.

Stuffed to the gills with beautiful salvaged and reused materials (from industrial kitchens to carnival-ride horses, and everything in between), the building is currently home to creative businesses for whom sustainability is part of their core mission. One floor belongs to a non-profit collaborative comprised primarily of architects and urban planners called MEx, and another to the many tenants of Green Spaces (including coffee distributors, bakeries, sound studios, and video production companies).
