It's more like "forge place" in the same way that kafejo (cafe) is "coffee place".

It's actually more like "distant gay" (and would be pronounced with a hard "g") because it's a (presumably deliberate) misspelling of forĝejo.

That's English for you, same word is usable for describing action, place and the furnace.
