Shared office real estate company WeWork announced Sunday it will open a new coworking space in Jerusalem in October. The Jerusalem location is set to be WeWork’s first space in the city and its ninth in Israel.

Located on King George Street in central Jerusalem, the two-floor space is set to host 400 people. Monthly leasing fees for the new location will start from $289 (NIS 1,050) for a hot desk and go up to $495 (NIS 1,800) for a desk in a private office.

Earlier this month, WeWork opened its first northern Israel location in the port city of Haifa, set to host up to 600 members. The company reports nearly 5,000 members in Israel. WeWork operates co-working spaces in 77 cities worldwide with 268,000 global members, according to company statements.

I hope you appreciated this article. Before you go, I’d like to ask you to please support the Forward’s award-winning journalism this Passover.

In this age of misinformation, our work is needed like never before. We report on the news that matters most to American Jews, driven by truth, not ideology.

At a time when newsrooms are closing or cutting back, the Forward has removed its paywall. That means for the first time in our 126-year history, Forward journalism is free to everyone, everywhere. With an ongoing war, rising antisemitism, and a flood of disinformation that may affect the upcoming election, we believe that free and open access to Jewish journalism is imperative.

Readers like you make it all possible. Right now, we’re in the middle of our Passover Pledge Drive and we still need 300 people to step up and make a gift to sustain our trustworthy, independent journalism.

Make a gift of any size and become a Forward member today. You’ll support our mission to tell the American Jewish story fully and fairly.
