Welcome to The Church

Isn't it fitting that I would travel across the country to work....in a church? Yes, it's true. Amorphic Robot Works is housed in a former church in the Redhook neighborhood in Brooklyn. (that's on the water, about a mile south of the brooklyn bridge.) This church was built back around 1840. Through the years, it was....a church, a Smo-King ash tray factory, a mob-run car chop shop, and now it houses...us. Redhook is a pretty funky little neighborhood, lots of colorful locals and lots of young manhattanites seeking cheaper living. Of course, the week I start working here, Redhook suddenly gets cool. The 'Hook made the Time Out magazine cover story this week for nyc:

Anyway, back to The Church....be warned, this is not your normal engineering office. It doesn't include the long drive out to the suburbs, the dry and boring office staff, the cubicles, the endless process meetings, the old engineer who sleeps at his desk because he knows they can't fire him... None of that. It might be a little different. Maybe I'll just start with a photo of the outside today, slow introductions. Welcome to the church.
