The Musical Box, an unpretentious spot on Avenue B near 13th Street, closed last April...
However, several EV Grieve regulars have passed on word that the Musical Box owners will reopen another bar in the space... and a walk by confirms that work is going on inside...
The liquor license here is active through March 2012, according to the State Liquor Authority.

Soooo happy. Just hope its as chill a place as its last incarnation.
ReplyDeleteWoah. That place wasn't chill when it was a really successful bar, and I bet you that the owner won't want it chill like the long death that was MB post-smoking ban. Lucky he owns the building!
ReplyDeleteHowever, if it packs 'em in like it used to, he'll need a co-owner, like they had before. I'm rather worried that instead it will just fill up with NYU-ers.
Still, fingers crossed! I hear it looks amazing inside. Bike chain chandelier anyone??
