Brooklyn Informed: Manhattan Inn and Glasslands Gallery

  • The green bent behind two BK hotspots.

  • Tags:

    Brooke Baxter and Rolyn Hu are Brooklyn's cultural impresarios. The duo own and operate both Glasslands Gallery and the Manhattan Inn, two of the borough's meccas for music, art and food. They're also way into sustainability. Both spaces are built from salvaged materials and include loads of interesting nuances, such as repurposed doorknobs as tap handles, and school desks as dining tables. The newer Manhattan Inn also has farm-to-table dishes and ingredients sourced from around its Greenpoint 'hood. The BKI crew sat down to riff with Brooke and Rolyn about their approach.
