    HUGE amount of complaints from the neighbors...noise, fights, drunk & disorderly citations. They have not been a good neighbor, despite the interesting space.

    I'd blame the ownership, which is supposedly 5 fold. They are also having burlesque and live music w/o a cabaret license, not that it would be hard for them to get one with their proximity to 5th Ave.

    Could have been nice, now it's just a PITA.

    gosh. i went there the first night it opened i think. we sort of stumbled over there vaguely. my friends lived off the 25th st stop and i had no idea where i was in brooklyn! in retrospect that was a really nice inexpensive apartment.
    in any case, it seemed like a big "funky" (i hate the word funky, but that is the only way to really describe it) space and eventually went back last year for burlesque. i think that little smokers' air shaft thing must irritate the neighbors. wouldn't be surprised!

    CLOSED!

    Found out last night from a biz owner on 5th Ave.

    No love lost...
