Company Gallery
Before settling back in to work I’ll stop by Company Gallery. They consistently show strong contemporary artists and the exhibitions are always thoughtfully installed. It’s a good reminder of how dense the gallery ecosystem still is downtown.

Abraco
Abraco is where a lot of coffee meetings happen. The espresso is strong and the space is tiny, but somehow everyone ends up here at some point. It’s one of those places where you almost always run into someone you know.
