“BCL is a great place for the clean and well appointed work space. But the real benefit is the community that has been created there supported and encouraged by the owners. The effort to make it a welcoming and friendly environment is what makes it a place where you can look forward to getting what you need done and interacting with some genuinely nice people doing interesting and diverse things.”
