From the May issue: As Gowanus develops, so do its hipster venues. Danny Tinneny, the son of a large landowner on Carroll Street, is opening a coffee shop and wine bar on Carroll Street and the canal this summer, with plans for live music and outdoor seating. Across the street is an old oil silo and yard that for the past three years has hosted performances, movie screenings and festivals. MeanRed Productions took over the venue last year, while former organizers ISSUE Project Room moved to an old can factory across the canal. In the more heavily industrial area on the Park Slope side of the canal is newly opened Bar Tano, an offspring of Park Slope’s Bar Toto. Stumbling distance away, another popular Park Slope bar, Union Hall, is opening a 5,000-square-foot venue.
