BrightWorks Coworking Expands to Downtown Ann Arbor with Third Location
Ann Arbor-based workspace provider opens new location at 255 E. Liberty St., bringing flexible workspace solutions to the heart of the city


ANN ARBOR, MI (October 23, 2025) — BrightWorks Coworking, a locally-owned coworking and meeting space business, announces the opening of its third Ann Arbor location this winter at 255 E. Liberty St. The new downtown space joins existing BrightWorks locations at Forest Cove Office Park on Miller Road and the 777 Building at State and Eisenhower.
BrightWorks on Liberty will offer private offices, dedicated coworking areas, and a flexible meeting space designed to capture the creative, energetic spirit of downtown Ann Arbor. The two-level space features a main floor with private offices, coworking areas, a kitchen, and a mail room, plus a mezzanine level with private offices and lounge.
"Opening a third location in just our second year of business feels surreal," said Kate Arbour, Coworking Community Manager at BrightWorks. "We've worked hard to curate a fantastic member experience at our first two locations, and we're thrilled to bring that same energy to downtown Ann Arbor. We look forward to being part of the Liberty Street area community — whether you're looking for your next workspace or just want to stop by and see what we're all about."
True to BrightWorks' tradition of celebrating bright minds throughout history, the new location features spaces named for influential thinkers and creators. Members and visitors can reserve the Beethoven meeting room for presentations and collaboration, work in the Hawking coworking area, or find focus in lounges and nooks honoring Jane Austen, George Washington Carver, Frederick Douglass and others.
