Last call for Speakeasy on Avenue C this weekend



The continued transformation of Nublu's new home at 151 Avenue C meant that the longtime tenant upstairs, Speakeasy, would eventually have to close up… and that's happening this weekend … Saturday night is it for the low-key salsa bar/club on the second floor that often feels as if you're in someone's living room. (Until the whole place is dancing anyway.)



Previously on EV Grieve:
151 Avenue C: "This prime East Village location stands out as a rare opportunity for users, investors and developers"

Nublu moving up Avenue C; restaurant in the works for new space

Report: Not everyone is happy about the pending arrival of Nublu's 2-story new home

  1. They will be burning out the squatters soon no doubt. They have a history with shadows. Look into it seriously. They are not what they seem. Get your guard up squatters.
