Last weekend, TransZap moved from our old offices near Denver's Civic center to our new location at 1999 Broadway. The new offices are definitively a step up from the previous ones (which were actually pretty decent to start with). The new offices are located into a very nice office tower located at the northern edge of downtown. Yet, we are still really close to the 16th street mall. This move generated a lot of excitement at TransZap, and it went very well with only a few minor issues.

The new building is in the middle of a major renovation. The common areas will be completely redecorated. There's going to be a cafe and a workout area on the second floor. I intend to avoid the first and use the second. I can certainly use the exercise. A few other nice amenities are that a light rail line stops next to the building and that there's a Wahoo's Fish Tacos restaurant within a few blocks.

One of the result of the move is that every one has their own office, each with a window. It's a big improvement from working in the hallway. I have a pretty decent view out of the window. On a good day, the brown cloud isn't too bad and I can almost see the King Suppers near my house. If I twist just right, I can even see the Flat Irons.

Mollie and I now carpool to work. Mollie is now starting a little later than she used to. She gets to sleep a little more, I don't have to wake up any earlier. Carpooling allows us to ride the HOV lane into downtown, which allows us to avoid the I-25 parking lot. I do get to the office a little earlier than I used to, but it also means that I can leave earlier than I used to. At the end of the day, we both meet at her parking garage and ride out.

Out of my mind...: New Digs
