Gotham City Lounge, where hipsters and Hispanics intersect
Eye On Real Estate
Holy Cultural Diversity, Batman! There’s a melting pot of old-time Bushwick residents and newcomers at Gotham City Lounge.
The 20-something guys shooting pool under the watchful eyes of Superman and Captain America, who look down from posters on the wall, probably don’t know that until a few years ago, the bar’s clientele was pretty much all Puerto Rican.
Then owner Ray Torrellas made some hipster-friendly changes to the bar at 1293 Myrtle Ave., like adding $2 cans of Pabst Blue Ribbon beer to the beverage offerings.
