Down & Out NYC looking closer to opening on 6th Street

Signage is up for Down & Out NYC outside 503 E. Sixth St. between Avenue A and Avenue B ...
If the name sounds familiar to you... the place has been in the works for several years. We first mentioned it in October 2019 when the ownership team, including Joshua Richholt who was behind the now-closed Bushwick venues The Well and The Wick, appeared before CB3.

The bar's Instagram account describes the place as a "cocktail and oyster bar" with a menu featuring other fresh seafood. No word yet on an opening date.

The address was previously Cholo Noir, the Chicano-inspired bar-restaurant that closed in August 2018 after 13 months. No. 503 was also home for five weeks to Long Bay, a Vietnamese restaurant that closed in the spring of 2015. Several years earlier the space housed Gladiators Gym.
