1776 has made its second acquisition.

Just weeks after the surprise announcement of its Disruption Corp. purchase, the Washington, D.C., accelerator has acquired San Francisco-based Hattery, a co-working space that will give the company a foothold on the West Coast.

As I previously reported, it's become clear that 1776 has its eyes on more than just the District. The Disruption Corp. announcement — which included partnerships with real estate giant Vornado and Arlington County — was only a first step in expanding the accelerator's influence.
