Ed. Note: WAMU notes, “In the District, any business that holds city-granted licenses or permits is subject to D.C. human rights law, which bars discrimination on the basis of sex or gender identity…D.C.’s Office of Human Rights could also launch its own investigation into The Wing. But city officials don’t appear to have the company in their crosshairs.”
From a press release:
“The Wing, a network of co-working and community spaces for women, is opening its fourth location (and first outside of NYC!) at 1056 Thomas Jefferson NW in the Georgetown neighborhood of Washington, D.C.
“Opening in Washington, D.C. allows us to welcome a new community of women to The Wing. We’re excited to invite the women who are fighting for change and rewriting the rules of politics into our space to share their mission with our members,” said co-Founder & CEO, Audrey Gelman.
ABOUT THE SPACE
The Wing D.C. will offer members signature amenities, including a cafe and bar, showers, lockers, meeting rooms, phone booths and an all-female art gallery.
Additional amenities of the 10,000 square foot space include a wellness and exercise room, bleacher seating for events, and The Wing’s largest female-centric library to date. (more…)
