The return of B-Side



B-Side, the neighborhood bar on Avenue B, closed back in March after 17 years here between 12th Street and 13th Street.

At the time, we were told that new owners were taking over the space.

However, those plans never further materialized and B-Side's ownership has announced that the bar reopens today with curbside seating. (They also unveiled B-Side t-shirts for sale.) Hours: 2-10 p.m.

In other reopening news nearby, 11th Street Bar between Avenue A and Avenue B returned yesterday, pouring its first pint of Guinness in 109 days. The bar is open from 2-10 p.m. for limited curbside seating and take-home drinks.

    So wonderful !
    Avenue B looks and feels better and better with more car storage spaces repurposed for people to use.
    The mayor, however, said all outdoor dining spots will be removed after Labor Day weekend, citing no reason.
    This is the same mayor who decided that the streets will not be cleaned next week at all.
    Now we need the city to create more loading zones so that trucks will not be forced to double park in order to deliver goods.
