Greenwood Heights Beer Garden Still Happening

Yesterday evening an interview with Overflow Magazine and Brooklyn restaurateur Tedd Mann made the rounds, revealing new details about the giant beer garden in the works for a car lot in Greenwood Heights. The lot, which covers an entire city block along 7th Avenue and 19th Street, will be transformed into something more like a park than German beer garden. Outside, there will be “landscaping, grass, a fire pit, trees, and an enormous amount of recycled materials.” Inside, the 3,500-square-foot space will be heated in the winter by a fireplace also made of recycled materials. Also: live music and casual food like watermelon and hot dogs. It’s quite an ambitious plan; think the neighbors will welcome it or that it’ll run into some snag at the community board level?
