I didn’t know there were work areas in the building unless your talking about the lobby area

C

Aperture has one near the lobby. I assume all buildings have one. I know at least 1 other has a work room

Most of the lobbies have one. Aperture has the nicest one that has its own room near the lobby.

Someone dropped this outside Vignette by the lower parking garage. I set it by the mail room.
