Coworking Space: BEAHIVE Beacon in Beacon

Inspired by the coworking and localism movements, BEAHIVE is a pioneering space for work and community and possibilities, the first of its kind in the Hudson Valley. At the most basic level, we provide a shared, creative work environment for entrepreneurs, the creative class, microbusinesses and consultants.

We’re more than a shared workspace. We’re a rich community of members with a desire to improve our professional and personal lives and our community.

We’re driven by the dream of vibrant, diverse and inclusive Hudson Valley communities — supported by an economy that is sustainable, locally rooted and human scale.

Our flagship hive opened in May 2009 in the heart of Beacon’s Main Street in the iconic Telephone Building. In June 2023 we relocated into a completely gut-renovated 4,000 sq ft space down the street.

As pioneers in the coworking movement we’ve leveraged our years of experience to create a warm, comfortable, inviting, productive place to work, meet, collaborate and socialize.

Our plant-filled flagship features an open, airy communal lounge and a kitchen with huge storefront windows facing Eliza St. It’s dotted with sofas and lounge chairs and work tables and borders multiple meeting rooms and privacy pods — available to both members and non-members. The lounge also functions as an event and meeting space.

Throughout we also have 14 private offices (aka resident studios) and a separate desk den with 10 resident desks and even more large storefront windows.

Over the years we’ve drawn members from Beacon and surrounding towns — Newburgh, Fishkill, Cold Spring, Cornwall, Garrison, Wappingers Falls, Pawling, Poughkeepsie and beyond.
