BRADLEIGH BLEECKER Singer | Performer

“Singing is often the only way I can ever completely express myself ” 5

What brings you joy?

Nothing brings me more joy than stepping on stage to perform. I live for the feeling of the heat from the lights and the nerves of live theatre. Getting to be on stage and share a story with your audience through a monologue or a song is an incredible and powerful feeling. Singing is often the only way I can ever completely express myself, the melody takes over where words fail.

To me, Oscar Wilde captures the meaning of theatre perfectly by saying “I regard the theatre as the greatest of all art forms, the most immediate way in which a human being can share with another the sense of what it is to be a human being.”

PEOPLE

“I don’t ever want to stop learning, exploring and creating” 7

What brings you joy?

I live to create and experience new things. A new design, a new photograph. A new friend, or a new destination. I don’t ever want to stop learning, exploring and creating. I love people, and nothing brings me more joy than seeing my creation impact someone in a meaningful way - inspiring them to realize their dreams and find confidence in their talents. Dejan Stojanovic summarized everything perfectly when he said “Creating means living”.

PEOPLE

Merle is a logo designer solopreneur-ing in Lancaster PA. When he’s not designing, he’s probably traveling to new cities, or trying a new coffee brewing method. Sometimes he takes pictures.

Our newest location was created in response to Lancaster’s growing community of professionals and creatives. Thanks to this emerging growth, Warehouse D offers affordable and contemporary workspace for local businesses, start-ups and brands.

Rooted within a vibrant community and centered within a thriving economy, we have created a dynamic and engaged community of professionals and creatives.

WAREHOUSE D Lancaster, PA

10 PLACE The 6,000 square foot, multi-level workspace supports three conference rooms; large communal workspace; full-service kitchenette; comfortable lounge areas; loft and spacious reserved desk seating.

A testament to the unique cultural and architectural facets of Lancaster Storage Co. building, current location of Warehouse D, our space serves as an excellent example of adaptive reuse – exposed copper piping, cement flooring and large wooden beams back dropped by a clean and modern aesthetic acknowledges early 20th century industrialism meets contemporary design.

“I’m blessed to be surrounded by such amazing talent each and every day,” said founder, Anne Kirby. “We’re not a rent-a-desk space, we are a community of professionals – small business owners, remote workers, nonprofits, students – who have come together to form a strong community that focuses on collaboration, sharing knowledge and building relationships.”
