The Gowanus Yacht Club
Gowanus Yacht Club is a beer garden located in the Carroll Gardens section of Brooklyn, New York City, located on the corner of Smith and President Streets.
==Description and history==
The outdoor beer garden was first opened early summer 2002, it rests on the vacant lot between "Bagels by The Park" and the entrance to the Carroll Street New York City Subway stop (.〔(Timeout NY "More Backyard Patios" )〕 The garden opened its doors to the young hipster crowd, which was slowly taking over the predominantly Italian neighborhood. Partial owners Alan Harding and Jim Mamary, said to be the pioneers developing an empire in Brooklyn, opened the Gowanus Yacht Club and similar restaurants along smith street and in the South Brooklyn region.〔(New York Times "Restless Pioneers, Seeding Brooklyn" )〕 In years before this Smith Street was not known for its cafés and boutiques, but for its excessive crime rate. Famous guests have included Alicia Goranson and other young celebrities native to South Brooklyn .〔(TMZ )〕
The Gowanus Yacht Club is actually not yacht club, as the space it occupies is roughly and it is completely landlocked. It is really named after the Gowanus Canal which is four blocks away; however, the Canal has been shut to most traffic except industrial containers. One of the contributing factors to the decor of the Gowanus Yacht Club, old buoys and water skis are strapped and hung from a giant tent which covers half the space and provides the only rain protection at this all outdoor establishment.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Alan Harding, Gowanus Yacht Club )〕 Patrons are expected to seat themselves at old picnic tables, church pews and wooden fold out chairs. Screwed to the top of every third table is a makeshift umbrella stand providing essential shade during the 5 months this seasonal bar remains open, during the off season they sell Christmas trees.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Pardon Me For Asking: Gowanus Yacht Club: No Beer Here! )〕 The Gowanus Yacht Club has also recently equipped the patio with a misting system. The space's bathroom, which was formerly a port-a-potty, is now one bathroom in the lower level with a public slop sink. In recent years the space has become much more desirable, including a chalk board allowing customers to voice their opinions.〔(Eater )〕
Alan Harding, co-owner and ex-host of discovery channels "Cookin' in Brooklyn",〔(Mouthfuls )〕 leads a staff of young employees, who lose their job every winter and are rehired around early May.〔(A Brooklyn Life )〕
