They are working on the garage next to the biker bar on St. Marks and Franklin. They have stenciled "Ice House Coming Soon" on the plywood, and have put down some new cinderblock. New bar? I would ask them, only I'm scared of them.

    Them being the bikers. I hear they're totally nice, but there's something about their size, the leather, and that vroom vroom sound that turns me into a frightened 10 year old

    Also, wonder if it's any relation to the Brooklyn Ice House in Red Hook

    No additional alc permit is in the works that I am aware of.

    Maybe they just need a place to store ice?

    Hmm, what type of ice are we talking about exactly?

    Silly new guy.

    These are old ones, therefore not bold ones.

    It would not surprise me if a few of them worked for MTA, and were full union members.

    I know whynot, most guys who can afford hogs are older gentleman fighting off a midlife crisis. So your right these are the old ones not the bold ones.

    They may have been born to be wild, but they have survived as a result of becoming mild.

    The "Ice House" really will sell ice. The ice house was located on Bergen bet. Franklin and Bedford. There is/was a sign on the former building indicating that they were moving to St. Marks Place and Franklin.

    They sell ice bags, white tees, socks, misc. things! When we have parties, my husband buys bags of ice from them. They're pretty cool! (no pun intended) lol

    Thanks Faithful!

    Yes, their old site was sold, has been demolished, and is presently being made into an apartment building...
