Print with me laser printer set up at Sugar House Coffee, Salt Lake City

Print with me laser printer set up at Sugar House Coffee, Salt Lake City

With all the talk of coffee shops serving as "third places" and or workspaces for the "Gig Economy," I can't say I've come across a printer set up like this one at the Sugar House Coffee shop in Salt Lake City.

The shop faces a parking lot and proves that the limit to using space creatively is up to one's imagination as they've made a nice outdoor patio in what otherwise would be a crappy parking lot.

(I have to admit at one time I too looked at parking lots or spaces in strip shopping centers as hopeless, but the reality is depending on the density conditions, space is space and can be an opportunity.  In DC, the Midlands Beer Garden is an example of both being creative in a strip shopping center and using parking lot space in innovative ways.)

According to the Print with Me website, they have locations in many cities across the country, and in some cities in Europe.  DC has one location, at the Harrar Coffee Shop, 2904 Georgia Avenue NW.

    Or just print at a FedEx store like they've been offering for at least a decade.

    Kind of off-topic, but how is the homeless situation in Salt Lake City?

  3. May I simply just say what a relief to discover someone that actually knows what they are talking about online. You actually know how to bring an issue to light and make it important. A lot more people ought to look at this and understand this side of the story. It's surprising you aren't more popular given that you definitely possess the gift.
