Jimmy's Corner Bar: NYC's Legendary Boxing Dive
In the bustling heart of New York City, just a stone's throw from the dazzling lights of Times Square, lies a true anomaly: a bar that defies the city's relentless march towards commercialization and exorbitant prices. This isn't just any watering hole; it's Jimmy's Corner Bar, a legendary establishment that has stood the test of time, offering an authentic slice of old New York, a haven for boxing aficionados, and a testament to the enduring spirit of community. It's a place where real people gather, where stories are shared, and where the legacy of its beloved founder, Jimmy Glenn, lives on.
Amidst the sea of indistinguishable Irish pubs and chain restaurants that dominate the Times Square vicinity, Jimmy's Corner emerges as a beacon of genuine character. Hidden in plain sight behind a faded awning on 44th Street, this small, unassuming black-owned bar has been a fixture since 1971. It's a place where the drinks are refreshingly affordable, the atmosphere is genuinely welcoming, and the walls are adorned with a rich tapestry of boxing memorabilia, each piece telling a story of champions and everyday heroes.
