Preliminary plan of Basement

Preliminary plan of Ground Floor

The current home of London Hackspace, leased from Friday 15th March 2013, which we moved into on April 13th. At more than 6500 sq ft (600 m²) over two floors, it's nearly triple the size of our old space, and also includes a > 6000sqft dedicated yard with loading bay.

Even though we've now moved there's still lots to do to make our space more awesome.

How to get there

447 Hackney Road London E2 9DY (map)

If no public events are running, the shutter on Hackney Road may be closed. In this case, access is through our rear gate on Emma Street. For more information on getting to the space, see Getting There

When to Visit

If you haven't visited London Hackspace before, you should drop by on one of our Tuesday open evenings to get a tour around the space. The front door will be open then, and we'll give you a tour and let you know how to join as a member.

Access

For members, the code to the rear gate is available on the members site.

The rear door (and the inner front door, when it's open) are locked using Doorbot. Members can open the door using a registered Oyster or other RFID card.

Local Area

There is a cash machine directly across the road by the Tesco.
Broadway Market and London Fields (for good food) are a 5-minute walk away
There is a cash and carry around the corner on Cambridge Heath Road
