In a former accountant’s office at 108 South Oxford Street, a boxing promoter has created a cozy throw-back of a space that will house Fort Greene’s first refuge for cigar smokers. Called Diamante’s Brooklyn Cigar Lounge, the new space has quietly been open for a few days but won’t have its grand opening until November 7. At that point, cigar aficianados can keep a locker onsite with their cigars (which can be purchased at the bar) and personal bottle, as the joint has no liquor license—not does it plan to get one. We were particularly impressed with all the architectural salvage the owner (who’s family first moved to the area a century ago) used in rebuilding the space from scratch. GMAP
