== Status ==
'''Noisebridge is up!''' We began building Noisebridge in February 2007. Since December 2007 we've had regular Tuesday meetings, and rented our first physical space as of October 1st 2008.  We quickly outgrew our first space and have been at our much larger 5,200 square-foot second location since October 1st 2009.  We are a [[Incorporation|tax-exempt 501(c)(3) organization]] as of July 2009, retroactive to October 2008.
