Workers everywhere have been ditching the cubicles and coffee shops. Instead, they've been opting in to a collaborative open work environment. As a result, coworking is becoming more popular than ever. New spaces are popping up all over to meet this growing demand and bigger chains like WeWork have reached valuations in the multi-billion dollar range! Lately, it just seems like a new space is opening up every week in New York City.

These newer spaces follow a similar basic structure to their predecessors -- a combination of open seating and private offices, with flexible monthly plans available. But they add a distinct flavor and community of their own, and are worth checking out. If you’re shopping around for the latest and greatest coworking spaces, look no further. We have put together a list of all of New York City's newest spaces.

Thompson Square Studios - Opened January 2016

Bklyn Commons - Opened March 2016

A newcomer in the Prospect Lefferts coworking scene, Bklyn Commons is a force to be reckoned with. Founder Jack Srour is a real estate developer and he has transformed the old Bond Bakery building into a magnificent workplace for entrepreneurs, freelancers, and teams alike. He sees the space as an experiment to get people connecting. The space itself feels very Brooklyn - splashes of unrestraint paint on the kitchen walls, modern artwork, and the piece de resistance - a sunny rooftop deck equipped with lounge chairs and a foosball table. It was basically made for summers in the city.

The duo has transformed it into a two story, 1250-square foot space. Palanca is a real estate broker, and Teresa works with startups to help with their marketing and branding. Together, the two of them put their heads together to create a workspace like no other!

Spring Place - Opened May 2016

Okay so Spring Place is not a traditional coworking space. With the price tag of $3600 monthly, it is an exclusive, members only clubhouse. But this new challenger to the long established Soho House deserves a mention here. Spring Place has specifically thought about workspace in a way that the former lacks. The three floor palace devotes two floor specifically for study time. Co-founder Francesco Costa envisions locations all over the world for jet setters who crave a place to work and serendipitously meet like-minded creatives.

Neighborhood: Tribeca
Address: 6 St Johns Lane New York 10013

Primary - Opened June 2016

Primary is the stuff that entrepreneur's dreams are made of. Cofounded by two early WeWork employees, Primary offers a different type of workspace. Instead of ping pong tables, there are meditation and yoga classes. Instead of pizza parties, juices and kombucha. The mantra is "You work best when you feel great", and it is manifested in the entire space. The vibe is zen but buzzing with the soft hum of positive energy.

Neighborhood: Financial District
