Willoughby and Baltic, founded as an art gallery, in 2001, became home to DorkbotBoston in January 2005. It then went through several iterations of hackerspace, achieving a high of 95 members. In October 2008, Willoughby and Baltic acquired two additional locations. Less than a year later it consolidated to a single large space at 13 Joy Street.
There was much political strife around Willoughby and Baltic centering on leadership issues. Many people left offended. In March of 2010 control of Willoughby and Baltic passed from Meredith to David. See the announcement. The corporation dissolved in April, and in May of 2010 the remainder of the organization merged with Artisan's_Asylum.
