NG Office Update 2005-08-19 09:40:42


I don't want to jinx it so I won't say much, but I have signed an agreement of sale (pending inspections) for another office building.

As many of you remember, we were under agreement for another building a few months ago but things fell through. That building is now on schedule to be demolished and turned into a parking lot. It's sorta like one of those endangered ski resort movies, only the evil guys won and tore everything down!

That's GOOD news, though, because this new building is MUCH better. It's... FREAKISHLY better. I was never looking for a place so big and awesome, but sometimes you just find the perfect place and you have to put it all on the line. Life's about risks, right?

I'll hold off on posting any pictures until the sale is final. Inspections start on August 30th and settlement will be in mid-November. It is a two story building and the owner has a lot of stuff to move from the first floor. After inspections I want to see if we can short-term lease the second floor prior to settlement.

This will be the first time NG has ever had a real office! For ten years now, it has existed as a place in the basements, bedrooms and living rooms of various apartments and houses. Time for some change!

Quoted from Tom:
"I'll hold off on posting any pictures until the sale is final."

Instead of just aiming for first post, I suggest you read the post first.

Response to NG Office Update 2005-08-19 09:44:53


Good luck, and when you do get it (fingers crossed), will you be inviting Newgrounds regulars to come and party with you and all the mods/admins/stamper in the NG office every summer?

That would be awesome.

aah.. pipe dreams..

Another page in the saga of Tom's search for a Newgrounds office. Somebody needs to make a flash about this, or better yet some sort of flash game.

Great news Tom!

I kinda expected somewhere in there you would make a Geico comment. But alas, I digress. I hope this one works out. Can't wait to see it next year at the 2nd Mod Meet-up.

Everything ain't done yet, he had bad luck last time.

I hope you luck though and even if you don't want to post any pictures because you don't want to hope too much if there won't be a deal; please can't we get some photos of the building... please?

Good luck! =)

Does this mean that Newgrounds will be off or down for a while?
