The Loft

Create, Connect, and Get Inspired at The Loft

A space that works as hard as you do. The Loft is downtown Rochester’s HQ for hustlers, doodlers, wordsmiths, and frame-snatchers. Sip stellar coffee, ride the WiFi wave, and plug into a community that actually gets your creative grind. No cubicles, no chaos—just good vibes and better ideas.

Not Your Average Work Space

The Loft at Ark is more than a place to work—it's a place to belong. Designed by and for creatives, our space invites you to get inspired, stay focused, and be surrounded by people who speak your language. Whether you're deep in a film edit, concepting a campaign, or finishing a pitch deck, this is your space to create with flow.

COFFEE SHOP WIFI  IS SO GOOD SUCKS

Everything You Need to Stay in Your Creative Zone

  • Coffee

    When your ideas stall, our coffee bar won’t. Grab a local roast and brew up a pour-over or espresso anytime.

  • Gigabit Internet Speeds

    Stream, upload, vibe, repeat. Our WiFi doesn’t play.

  • Lounge Seating with Downtown Views

    Think big from the couch. City views included.

  • Mixed-Height Work Tables

    Sit. Stand. Pace around and come back. We’ve got tables for whatever mode you’re in.

  • Creative Community Access

    You're not alone. Work near people who get it—and maybe even collab on something wild.

House Rules at The Loft

Welcome to The Loft — your creative community. This is your creative space—but it’s also everyone else’s. Let’s keep it awesome.
Please review before booking.

Time Is of the Essence

Booking hours are weekdays, 8:00 AM – 4:00 PM.
We all love a late-night edit, but The Loft runs on daytime energy.


Loft Life Only

Your booking includes access to The Loft space only.
The studio and gear are off-limits unless we say otherwise—no sneaky shoots, please.


Leave No Trace (Except Great Ideas)

Clean up after yourself.
Trash out, coffee mugs back, vibes intact.


Be Cool, Be Kind

Respect the space and the people in it.
No egos, no weird energy. Headphones help, so do manners.


Snack Smart

Light bites = yes. Full-blown feasts = no.
This isn't a food court. Keep it tidy, crumb-free, and low-key.


No Clouds Allowed

No smoking or vaping—anywhere inside.
Not by the window. Not in the corner. Not even one puff.


Keep It Legal, Keep It Chill

No shady business.
We love creativity. Just not the “true crime doc” kind.
