JERUSALEM (JTA) — WeWork Jerusalem will open a public shared office space in a sukkah during the holiday week.
The sukkah will be located in Jerusalem’s First Station, a popular recreation area which includes restaurants and shops.
It will include indoor and outdoor shared desks with free WiFi access, a lounge area and two conference rooms, as well as a barista, a bartender and a DJ in the evenings, WeWork said in a statement.
WeWork Jerusalem will officially open on October 2 in a facility on the city’s King George Street and will be the ninth WeWork in Israel, which has five in Tel Aviv, and one each in Herzliya, Beersheba and Haifa.

Did you know that only 2% of Forward readers donate to support our nonprofit newsroom? That 2% make it possible for millions to read the Forward without a paywall or subscription — removing any barriers to the full and fair Jewish story.
But while the Forward is free to read, it isn’t free to produce. Big stories — like deep dives into the antisemitism data, political scoops or reporting trips to college campuses — take months of research and fact-checking. All while we keep you informed of what you need to know each day.
