Ago's Cork Ceiling. Thanks Girlscouts?

Via Down By The Hipster [who has been SUPER wrong before] the new ceiling at Ago composed of cork is in place. This is clearly accurate.

Ago is the new restaurant of Robert DeNiro's in his new Tribeca Hotel, the Greenwich Hotel, that is a follow up to the existing LA outpost where DeNiro is an investor. It was a major shun to Drew Nieporent as he basically owns Tribeca food and is BFF with DeNiro, but that is an entirely other blog posting.

What I am not quite sure about is according to DBTH: "a Little Birdy has an update, telling us "there are only 100,000 corks and they were gotten from a branch of the Canadian girls scouts that collected and sold them for charity."

Hmmm. Sounds fishy. I'm going to take a no on this factoid. But whatever, cool ceiling none the less. We will definitely snag a meal here.
