Step right up: A game show experience is coming to the Bowery

Signage is up for Game of 1000 Boxes at 302 Bowery between First Street and Houston. 

This will be the permanent home for the "live game experience" currently popping up on West 37th Street. 

How it works, per the Go1000 site
1000 Boxes is a live game show experience where teams of 4 compete using handheld buzzers through multiple rounds of trivia, reaction games, and team challenges. It's like being a contestant on your favorite game show, but with your friends! 
The Bowery outpost will include "a dedicated bar and lounge." 

The last full-time (not a pop-up) biz here was Olde Good Things in 2022.
