Overview

By Chris Lukic

At a time when authenticity is fast becoming outmoded in New York, it's heartening see Jimmy's Corner packed to occupancy on a Tuesday night.

History

Still answering the bell

Jimmy Glenn, a boxing trainer and former amateur boxer, opened Jimmy's Corner on West 44th Street in 1971^{1, 2}. We were heartened to find it packed to occupancy on a Tuesday night, at a time when authenticity was fast going out of style in New York.

His son Adam Glenn has run the bar since 2015, and Jimmy Glenn died of COVID in 2020^{1, 3}. In 2025 Time Out found the son still enshrining his father's legacy there².

In December 2025 the Durst Organization moved to evict the bar¹. In February 2026 a judge temporarily halted the eviction proceedings while the lawsuit played out, and the bar was still standing³.
