Manhattan Neighborhood Network (MNN) is an American non-profit organization that broadcasts programming on five public-access television cable TV stations in Manhattan, New York City. MNN operates two community media centres – in midtown Manhattan and East Harlem – and provides facilities to community producers and organizations who want to create programming to air on one of MNN's five channels.[1][2] It is considered to be the largest community media center in the United States.[3]

In 2012, MNN opened the MNN El Barrio Firehouse Community Media Center in East Harlem.[4] In March 2023, MNN moved its other location from 537 West 59th Street to a brand new facility at 509 West 38th Street.[1][5]
