Bushwick may already be famous for its gritty industrial ethos and its throngs of hipsters. Now a local environmentally conscious gym is looking to up the ante. Green Fitness Studio, located at 232 Varet Street, wants to let its hot and sweaty members cool off with a Pabst (PBR, in Williamsburg-speak) and has submitted an application for a liquor license to prove it, according to DNAinfo.

The multi-level gym is known for its recycled workout equipment, grass-covered roof, capoeira and yoga classes, but it could soon become a host to rooftop events in the evening.

“We’re having parties in the space,” Sebastian Almada, a manager at the studio, said. Almada added that the venue has already begun renting it roof to promoters, such as Black Market NYC, that possess their own liquor permit. [DNAInfo] – Christopher Cameron
