Ah, so you're talking about what I knew as a "co-op" when I was a student at the University of Wisconsin-Madison in the late 60s and early 70s. A place of shared interests and expertise, where you pay a fee to become a member, share in the duties required to keep the place working, and theoretically everyone benefits.
