Office workers can now bring their job outside and work at Rosslyn BID's O2 outdoor workspace at Gateway Park.
ROSSLYN, VA — Rosslyn workers have a new space where they can meet and work safely outdoors. The Rosslyn Business Improvement District (BID) opened O2, its new outdoor office workspace on Thursday.
"We know that safe outdoor public spaces are key to maintaining mental and physical health and helping people feel connected to where they spend their time," said Mary-Claire Burick, president of the Rosslyn BID, in a release."O2 is an extension of the wonderful office community we have in Rosslyn and we're excited to bring it to Arlington."
Weather permitting, the facility will be open free of charge on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. The space can be reserved in 90-minute blocks of time, from 10-11:30 a.m.; 12-1:30 p.m.; and 2-3:30 p.m., with 30 minute breaks to allow Rosslyn Ambassadors a chance to clean and sanitize each station.
