Industry in more ways than one
Gowanus' charm lies in its authentic blend of old-school tradition and new enterprise. Classic rowhouses and converted warehouses providing a melting pot for many of the area' young families, thriving startups, and must-go hotspots.
Showcasing the inestimable power of a walkable neighborhood, here are our favorite haunts all within a stone's throw of the studios:
- Halyards: an unassuming, lovely corner bar with craft beers, cocktails and small bites
- We love our next-door neighbors @ The Bell House. A one-stop-shop for live music, comedy nights, eats, drinks, you name it
- Four & Twenty Blackbirds: caffeine fix destination of choice and a decadent pie offering
- Ortega y Gasset Projects: need some creative stimulation? This wonderfully-curated exhibition space is inspiring
