A “young, cool-people’s” coffee shop on the first floor of an old office building in downtown Chicago.

A place like this exists? All I can think of is Intelligensia.




It's a Louis CK bit, and an inside joke because the bit does match up with Intelligentsia (there's actually one of those in LA, where LCK wrote the bit, so I've always wondered).

Our office is in fact a few floors up from the Intelligentsia in the Monadnock building.


Very cool. I have always wanted to start a Haskell consultancy and run it out of that building ;)


Joking about names aside: highly recommend this building. Lots of cheap offices --- incl. some very small ones --- and the building itself is gorgeous inside and out.


For variety you should head up a block to the Argo in the Marquette building. I work above the Argo, but sometimes visit your Intelligentsia for variety :)


You should drop me a line sometime and introduce yourself; I'll buy. =)


Right you are, sir.
