WeWork - 1201 Wilson Boulevard

Charlie Long 5 years ago

I have a WeWork Global Access Membership through American Express and since the location at 1201 Wilson opened this past summer it’s been my main office. It’s an absolutely gorgeous space with three floors at the top of the Central Place Tower (tallest building in the DC Metro Area). With floor to ceiling windows it affords fantastic panoramic views of almost the entire city as well as a roof deck to sit and work outside on nice days. The design inside is a more industrial, modern feel that matches the Rosslyn aesthetic pretty well - lots of people in both business attire and much more casual wear. The space never really seems to be close to capacity I think given that there are already so many existing office spaces nearby. That being said, other members and I have both had front desk staff give more stern direction on booking desks in advance. The 1201 location is my only point of reference but my colleague who works out of other locations was a bit taken aback and said that the other DC locations seem to be much more casual and have a warmer vibe. That being said, the staff does a wonderful job with programming and with communication on upcoming events, giveaways, and social events. Location has an electronic hot coffee machine, nitro on tap, some strange nitro tea, flavored fruit water, and a few other offerings. The common spaces as well as the bathrooms are kept in great shape. While I don’t use my membership frequently, I’d definitely recommend this WeWork location to anyone in the Arlington Corridor.
