This morning, Ian Hall walked me through Brooklyn & the Butcher. The build-out is ongoing but getting close, and even without furniture, the “shock and awe” factor of Matt Chalfant’s redesign is almost overwhelming. These uncropped photos convey some of it. Tomorrow, I’ll arrange a few compare-and-contrast photos for your enjoyment. The restaurant is hoping to open in February, 2016.
