"The Lighthouse's website describes its two locations thus far as places "to enable and empower career creators and creative professionals." Its first campus is situated in southern California - Venice, to be precise. Now, its second location has opened its doors, and it's in a structure that will likely be familiar to at least some of its prospective clientele: the Greenpoint, Brooklyn offices that Kickstarter once called home.The building in question went on the market in 2023; as Curbed's Adriane Quinlan reports, the offices have been somewhat renovated."
"Individual memberships are $5,750 per year; teams of between four and eight people have a slightly lower annual rate of $5,000 per person. There's also a monthly rate for offices within the space, including 24-hour access. Will the Lighthouse's Brooklyn location find takers for what Quinlan described as "a sort of Hype House-factory hybrid"? Applicants will still need to have their memberships approved by a council involving a number of internet personalities and creative types, including Eddie Huang and Evan Shapiro."
The Lighthouse operates campuses to enable and empower career creators and creative professionals, with an initial location in Venice, California. The second campus occupies Kickstarter's former Greenpoint, Brooklyn offices, a building purchased in 2023 by the Whalar Group and subject to partial renovations. The company plans three locations total: Venice, Brooklyn, and London, with London slated to open next. Individual memberships cost $5,750 annually; teams of four to eight pay $5,000 per person annually. Monthly office rentals with 24-hour access are available. Photos of the space indicate modest changes rather than a complete revamp, and the Brooklyn location has been described as a "Hype House-factory hybrid." Membership applicants require approval from a council of internet personalities and creative industry figures, including Eddie Huang and Evan Shapiro.
