In case you want to watch some fireworks tonight
[Outside Elsewhere Espresso on East 6th Street via Derek Berg]
As you probably know, the July 4 (that's today!) fireworks return to the East River ... first time since somebody moved them to the Hudson River in 2009.
Anyway! Here's a roundup of some of the Where-to-watch-the-fireworks roundups:
• Brooklyn Vegan
• Curbed
• Gothamist
• DNAinfo
Or, if you'd rather watch from a TV set in a bar, NBC will broadcast the fireworks live beginning at 9 p.m.
And now, enjoy Siouxsie & The Banshees with "Fireworks" from 1982...

Does anyone know if the fields near the East River and 5th st will be open for viewing?
It's funny, because I didn't even know that "south" of the Manhattan Bridge was even still considered the "East River".
They keep saying "Returning" to the East River. This is not a "return". It's in a completely new place from whence it originally came.
The Macy's 4th of July Fireworks were on the East River from 1958-2008, so yes they are returning to the East River where more New Yorkers can see them and they where. they do belong. PS: Yes, the Manhattan Bridge is over the 'East River.
I'll bet that Kita, the Wonder Dog, eats fireworks for breakfast....
...like, bring it on!
@4:07 PM
Yeah, but it's not returning to where it used to be (i.e. Its original points further up the river)
On separate issue:
Hey Grieve, that's "Elsewhere" Espresso.
Now, maybe if Everyman Espresso and Elsewhere Espresso got married, it might be called Everywhere Espresso; but we'll have to wait and see on that one.
