The Living Room no longer on this month's CB3/SLA agenda



As we've been reporting, The Living Room is hoping to move its live-music venue from Ludlow Street to East Second Street... and the owners were set to go before the CB3/SLA committee on Monday night.

However, a tipster notes that, for whatever reasons, they are no longer on the agenda. (See helpful arrow above.) The Living Room also withdrew before last month's meeting.

During a a recent community meeting, some residents on this block said that they were "vehemently opposed to the possibility of The Living Room" on this block between Avenue A and Avenue B. (Read that post here.)

Perhaps The Living Room wants to do more community outreach ... or look for another location. Many people have said they'd love to see The Living Room stay in the area — and not relocate to Brooklyn, where everyone seems to go to these days. And they have a little more time: The Living Room received another lease extension for their current home on Ludlow Street, as BoweryBoogie reported.

The space currently housing Klean & Kleaner, the laundromat at 173 E. Second St., remains on the market.

  1. We're still opposed and they're still trying. They're currently on the May 20th cb3/sla agenda.
