Downtown Bowling Green just got a big win — and a building that sat vacant now has a second life.

On Thursday, Nov. 12, 2026, the Four Corners Center + COWORK cut the ribbon at 248 S. Main Street in downtown Bowling Green, opening the community’s first coworking space. The celebration was hosted by the Bowling Green Chamber of Commerce, Four Corners Center and COWORK, joined by JobsOhio and the Regional Growth Partnership.

The project restored a historic building that had sat vacant, with approximately $1.5 million invested into downtown Bowling Green. The result is a mixed-use business, coworking, and residential hub — a new home for local professionals, startups and remote workers right in the heart of downtown.

The building is already buzzing. In September 2026, the Bowling Green Chamber of Commerce, VisitBG Ohio, the Downtown Bowling Green Special Improvement District, and Bowling Green Economic Development moved into the building.

COWORK offers private offices and cubicles, the Falcon and Bobcat Conference Rooms, and direct access to Four Corners staff — giving Bowling Green professionals a place to work, meet and grow without leaving town.

Support for the project came through JobsOhio’s Vibrant Communities program.

“This investment into Downtown Bowling Green gives a permanent home to the Four Corners Center while creating the communities’ first coworking space,” said Katie Thompson, executive director of Bowling Green Economic Development.

It’s a first for Bowling Green — and a sign of downtown momentum. A vacant historic building is back in use, downtown organizations are under one roof, and local workers and entrepreneurs finally have a coworking home of their own.
