Barcade clears 1st hurdle for opening on St. Mark's Place

As previously reported, the owners of Barcade are looking to open an outpost of the bar-retro video game venue at 6 St. Mark's Place.

CB3's SLA committee gave their OK for a beer-wine license during Monday night's meeting, though only after the owners agreed not to pursue full liquor and close at 2 a.m. instead of 4 a.m., DNAinfo's Lisha Arino reported yesterday.

"We have a romantic view of [St. Mark's Place]," co-owner Paul Kermizian said. "We're happy to be here."

Barcade owners will next need to secure an arcade license for their 30 classic arcade games here between Second Avenue and Third Avenue.

  1. Arcade license? WTF? This city is ridiculous.

    I give this place the life of the lease or less. This area is too dead to sustain it long-term.
