National Sawdust

Williamsburg

A former sawdust factory reborn as a sonic sanctuary where 169 seats and a state-of-the-art spatial sound system put you impossibly close to experimental jazz, contemporary classical, and electronic artists. The whitewashed interior feels like stepping into another world: one built entirely for listening.
