“What we are building together in Provo will be world-class, showcasing the future of flexible and experiential workspace.”

Kiln is thrilled to announce that its flexible office and coworking community will open September 5th at the River’s Edge on University development in Provo.

In partnership with Brighton Development, Kiln’s 40,000 square foot, handcrafted facility provides an amenity-rich, all-inclusive workspace experience for creatives, startups, and enterprise teams, and serves as a center of gravity for Provo’s vibrant entrepreneurial community. 

“I have always loved Provo, not only because I was raised here, but also because it has been home to so many impressive founders and companies. We couldn’t be more excited to introduce the Kiln community to all the good that this ecosystem already has to offer. We were very impressed with Brighton Development’s vision and creative plan for River’s Edge. What we are building together in Provo will be world-class, showcasing the future of flexible and experiential workspace.” says Arian Lewis, CEO of Kiln. 

Provo continues to thrive with a near-uninterrupted title of America’s “top-performing city” in annual economic rankings by the Milken Institute nonprofit think tank. Its active population, strong talent pipeline, and dynamic entrepreneurial scene draws hugely successful companies like Vivint and Qualtrics, and nearby Brigham Young University and Utah Valley University both boast impressive entrepreneurial centers and mentorship programs.

“The days of Plumtree Plaza lying dormant as an eyesore to our community are over with the transformative development well-underway at River’s Edge on University,” says Provo Mayor Michelle Kaufusi. “Creating economic vibrancy requires the right timing and team. With both now in place, our promise to reinvent spaces for new generations to enjoy is underway. Kiln is an ideal example, with their innovative work concept not only expanding job opportunities, but re-envisioning the entire industry.”

The standalone facility is conveniently located just ten minutes from I-15, centered between the major thoroughfares of State Street and University Blvd.  The 28-acre ground-up mixed-use development featuring popular restaurants and shops, as well as premium apartment units (The Lofts at River’s Edge) and townhouse style condos (The Towns at River’s Edge). As the anchor tenant of the River’s Edge development, Kiln’s flexible office and coworking community will provide a full-scale list of amenities for individuals and teams of 1-100. Kiln offers club memberships for individuals, private offices for small teams and enterprise suites for large teams.  Membership will include access to conference rooms, podcast and video recording studio, theater event space, wellness studio, handcrafted food and beverage offerings, three outdoor terraces, views of Mount Timpanogos, and much more.

“Kiln has done an excellent job at building a center of gravity for the tech ecosystem in Lehi, Salt Lake City, Park City, and Boulder. We have no doubt that they will do the same in Provo.”

“We are thrilled that Kiln has opted to come to the River’s Edge on University project, and know they will be a strong and dynamic partner to make a vibrant mixed-use center, which will also include 416 housing units, and an additional 90,000 square feet of retail and office,” says Nate Pugsley, CEO of Brighton Development.

In addition to providing flexible workspace options, Kiln can be leveraged as a meeting room and event space. The Kiln team intends to host a myriad of tech and entrepreneurship programming in its theater space, much of which will be open to the general public. 

“Kiln has done an excellent job at building a center of gravity for the tech ecosystem in Lehi, Salt Lake City, Park City, and Boulder (CO). We have no doubt that they will do the same in Provo,” says Eric Woodley, Managing Partner of Woodley Real Estate. 

Many hands have been involved in helping this project come to life, including The City of Provo, Nate Pugsley of Brighton Development, Eric and Brycen Woodley of Woodley Real Estate, Lance Pendleton of Mountain West Commercial, and Dan Teed and Taylor Carpenter of Mint.
