Getting a Build Space

Keep strip malls in mind too, a team in our area used such a space a few years back. Slightly fewer issues with passerbys and generally cheaper if you do have to pay something for the space. Depending on your sponsor, you might even be able to request the sponsor help you with additional funds to cover the space.

I might also suggest looking into any vacant/underutilized school buildings the district has (assuming you're still on good terms with them and lost the space for other reasons); the same team I mentioned above currently works out of a vacant elementary school (they have the whole school to themselves) and they just have to keep the place clean and their sponsor helps cover upkeep costs.
