Webster Hall alum withdraw application for former Lovecraft space on Avenue B
The Webster Hall alum have withdrawn their application for 50 Avenue B/238 E. Fourth St.
They were to appear before CB3's SLA committee tonight for a new liquor license for a venture that featured a pizzeria and live music. Applicants included Stephen Ballinger, the head bartender and bar manager at the now-closed Webster Hall from 2014-2017, and Adam Ballinger, who served as the venue's marketing manager.
According to a tipster: "They withdrew completely and are not interested in that space at all."
That space previously housed Lovecraft, which was inspired by horror writer H. P. Lovecraft. That bar-restaurant closed in early 2018 after three-and-a-half years in business. The other piece of this parcel, the slice joint Johnny Favorite's, shuttered in August 2017 after debuting in April 2015.

finaly some good news
Great news for the neighborhood.
Thank God! Poco creates enough of a disturbance. Our intersection has become unbearable with people who don't give a shit.
