Wither Lumé?

While walking up Avenue C yesterday, I spotted these stairs, leading into a bar (now out of business) called Lumé:

Dilapidated stairs.

Inside the door was this chalkboard sign:

10% off for all locals.

How could a place like this close? It had all the right ingredients — dilapidated stairs, a discount for local residents — everything needed for success in the East Village!

Some mysteries are just not meant to be solved.

  1. i think they were closed due to the horrendous grammar on that sign.

    1. the nyc department of grammar, punctuation, and spelling (dept. of gps) - they have the final say on any and all signage. that is why new york has such wonderful signs! :-)
