The Box is one of the most interesting entertainment spaces in New York City. For the first thing, it has a Broadway-musical celebrity pedigree. One of the owners has the last name Hammerstein. We won't belabor this point here; if you don't know what this means and want to know, let Google shine and lead you through the gazillions sources of information sources that will educate you.

For another piece of its geneology, another of its investors is an owner of other downtown restaurants and bars: witness La Esquina and the up-the-street-bar on Chrystie Street, the 205 Bar.

dramatic live performance venue The Box opened in February 2007. Other owners include a producer behind the Donkey Show and a member of The Wooster Group. Ah, but to the most fun for us is the owner who is also the designer of another lower east side restaurant, Suba. He is a convicted criminal!

Did you know?

September 2010 -- Do you know who this lovely naked lady is? Why of course you do! She has the number one pop music hit of the summer with, "California Girls" (featuring Snoop Dogg). Well if Ms Katy Perry doesn't melt your popsicle yet, wait until you see the album cover (or is it CD cover?) for her new album!

Ms Perry's new album is titled, "Teenage Dream". The album cover artist is Mr Will Cotton, a lower east side artist whose work Ms Perry greatly admires. They became a most effective creative force with Mr Cotton serving as artistic director for the wildly successful video for California Girls. File: Naked Katy Perry album cover
