ABOUT WFHish NYC

As someone who spends a lot of time “working from home", a quality remote workspace outside of the home is vital for my own mental health and productivity.

Like many New Yorkers, I know a handful of great places that meet my needs.

I want to take advantage of the fact I work remote and use this change to see other parts of the city I wouldn’t otherwise go to.

Unfortunately that can always be a gamble.

Maybe the wifi is spotty, there isn’t a great plug situation, not enough seating etc.

WFHish is a curated list from a long term remote worker in New York City showing great places across the city.

Maybe you’ve heard of some, and maybe others… not so much.

Plus, let’s have a little fun with it. In addition to no frills recommendations we have interesting features with notable influencers, writers, tech thinkers, artists, filmmakers, and other hands of remote workers that make this city so special for locals and transplants alike.

You can catch the updates at our map.
