9. The furniture docking system of claim 8 wherein said support foot comprises a first support foot, and further comprising a second support foot coupled to said one of said vertical frame members opposite said first support foot and extending from said dock on said first side of said dock.

10. The furniture docking system of claim 1 wherein said furniture accessory engages said pair of auxiliary channels.

11. The furniture docking system of claim 1 wherein said second dock support engages one of said pair of auxiliary channels.

12. The furniture docking system of claim 1 wherein said upper rail further comprises a pair of side channels opening laterally outwardly from opposite sides of said upper rail, and wherein said first dock support engages one of said side channels.

13. The furniture docking system of claim 1 wherein said furniture accessory comprises overhead storage, said overhead storage comprising a stanchion engaging said primary channel.

14. A furniture docking system comprising:

a plurality of docks each comprising opposite first and second sides and opposite first and second ends defining a length of each said dock, wherein said docks are arranged end-to-end along a longitudinal axis, each of said plurality of said docks comprising an upper rail comprising an upwardly opening primary channel extending longitudinally along a centerline of a top of said upper rail, a pair of upwardly opening auxiliary channels extending longitudinally along a top of said upper rail on opposite sides of said primary channel, and a pair of side channels opening laterally outwardly from opposite sides of said upper rail;

at least a first dock support and a second dock support each releasably connectable to each of said plurality of docks in a plurality of longitudinally spaced locations along said length of said dock and comprising a floor engaging portion laterally spaced from said dock, wherein said first dock support extends laterally from said dock on said first side thereof and said second dock support extends laterally from said dock on said second side thereof, wherein said first dock support is coupled to said upper rail at one of said auxiliary channels, and said second dock support is coupled to said upper rail at one of said side channels; and

a furniture accessory coupled to said primary channel of said upper rail and extending upwardly from said upper rail;

wherein said second dock support is coupled to said upper rail with a first draw block engaging said side channel, and further comprising a draw rod coupled between said first draw block and a lower rail vertically spaced from said upper rail, and a second draw block engaging said lower rail and coupled to said draw rod.

15. The furniture docking system of claim 14 wherein said first dock support comprises a support engaging said auxiliary channel, a worksurface coupled to said support and at least one leg supporting said worksurface at a location laterally spaced from said dock, wherein said at least one leg comprises said floor engaging portion of said first dock support.

16. The furniture docking system of claim 15 wherein said worksurface is vertically adjustably coupled to said support.

17. The furniture docking system of claim 14 wherein each of said docks further comprises a lower rail vertically spaced from said upper rail and a plurality of vertical frame members extending between and connected to said upper and lower rails, and further comprising a third dock support coupled to one of said vertical frame members of another one of said docks.
