The Holiday 2.0

The Holiday Cocktail Lounge was a popular cocktail lounge on St. Mark's Place. When the owner died, it floundered through a couple of new owners until it finally closed.

This past Sunday, I walked by and saw it open again:

Open again.

The Holiday was not the dingiest bar in the East Village, but it wasn't the cleanest either. But take a look at it today:

They really fixed this place up nice — there is no duct tape on the naugahyde seats, and no one was asleep with his head on the bar…

Keeping important traditions alive… in the East Village Today!
