Expanding the Office
Lot18 started in a Starbucks (there were 2 of us back then), from there we graduated to a cube rented from Snooth (6 people), pretty soon it was 2 cubes and a satellite office for the dev team and myself - generously loaned by Ziff Davis (that saw us to 20). After that, and having reached 25 people, we moved to our first proper office.
A whopping 8,000 square feet on East 32nd St in Manhattan. That was in March. Now with nearly 90 people that averages out to less than 100 square feet per person and its become untenable.
Last night we formally broke through the wall to the rest of the floor, which we've just signed. That takes us to around 16,000 square feet. We'll see how long that lasts.

Hang on to that Asbestos / Lot 18 / death’s head shot. It should go on the front page either next 1 April or next 31 October.
