The main office of The Neighborhood Bridge is in the Bridge Center, located at the corner of Austin and Washington Boulevards in Oak Park. The location is ideal since its five school partners are no more than two miles from this location and few human service providers are located in Central West Austin. Currently renting space from the Archdiocese in the building are also Housing Forward, which has offices in the center, and Beyond Hunger, which has a cold storage unit in the garage.
