CoLab, a new co-working space in Trumbull, signs its first two tenants

A new co-working space in Trumbull has signed its first pair of leases, the Daily Voice Plus reported. The CoLab@55 Merritt, which opened its doors earlier this year, has inked a one-year lease for 2,500 square feet with e-commerce distribution startup Heir Logic and a five-year lease for 6,200 square feet with Graystone Advertising Group, leasing agent Colliers International told the outlet. Norwalk-based Levco Mechanical Group, owner of the co-working space, originally intended to gear the space toward tradesmen and craftsmen. While that’s still the case, the group decided to branch out to include other tenants as well, Colliers client services coordinator Tim Johnson told the DVP. “Our message has evolved to where we’re talking with local companies of all types,” he said. “It’s flexible enough to allow any company to flourish and grow.” CoLab@55, which is based out of a 110,000-square-foot former Unilever data center at 55 Merritt Boulevard, is now in talks with several other prospective tenants. The Real Deal reported earlier this year on co-working’s expansion in the markets around New York City. [DVP]
