Geoff's got a theory on building a coworking community in a known temporary space, and how valuable it can be.
In short, building in a space that's known to not be permanent keeps you focused on the people instead of the space, since the space could go away at any time. When it DOES go away, all of the members you've attracted get a chance to band together to find a new space (and talk to Tony at New Work City about how awesome that process can be).
