Here's one description of the CBGB Theater via: "The place was disgusting. It made the CBGB club look like the Rainbow Room. We were talking about eighty years' worth of dirt. I mean there was popcorn left over from the last performance of the Yiddish theater in 1925...They did manage to clean up the entryway, and made it look like a subway station."

When I moved in across the street in 1982 that large sign was a balcony for the squatters. It was full of wooden sculptures and rabbits, yes, live bunny rabbits. Miss the marvels of the old EV when every block was an adventure.
