Fall 2008 - Lou Reed, the Brooklyn born rocker would love for a street in New York City to be named in his honor. Isn't that nice? The former front man for the Velvet Underground is known for songs about transvestites, drug addicts and dominatrixes of the city's underbelly. He has been nicknamed, 'The Bard of Greenwich Village'. Reed could be imagining an honor like punk rocker Joey Ramone received in 2003 when city officials renamed the corner of Bowery and Second Street in the East Village for him. Lou Reed's first apartment was on Ludlow Street on the Lower East Side. He says he located here "because it was cheap." Mr Reed also said that the New Yorker who would have made the best American President was not Hillary or Rudy, but Andy Warhol. Filed under: Lou Reed's Apartment Lower East Side

Fall 2008 - American television network ABC debuts their version of a British television show, "Life on Mars". Starring Harvey Keitel, Michael Imperioli, Jason O'Mara and Gretchen Mol as NYPD detectives working the mean streets in 1973. The American production company has adapted the BBC version to showcase 1973 New York City as its home base. To transform modern-day New York into the rough-and-tumble city of 1973, the "Mars" production crew has pulled out all the stops, dressing entire city blocks - and scores of extras - to authentically resemble the era. Shooting sites have included the Lower East Side and the Brooklyn Navy Yard. Filed under: Life on Mars Lower East Side

Birthday Ideas in New York City - Having a birthday? Need great birthday gift ideas? Or perhaps you are throwing a beach theme party and are shopping for some unusual beach party favors. Planning a trip to New York City? Take a tour ahead of time of our Central Park. We've also visited Huntington Beach in California. Did you know that it's official nickname is Surf City USA. It's named after the Jan & Dean song from the 1960s. Speaking of the 1960s, that decade is now thought of with nostalgia. If you are looking for some retro vintage style cat's eye glasses, we have them in a lot of different colors.

Chloe, latest underground bar    
 
 
   
Did you know?
January 2009 - The latest hipster joint for socializing and drinking comes in the form of the subterranean lounge, Chloe. To enter, you must know the doorway, for that is the true mark of the hipster wold in 2009. Door knowledge is power (so is the number of a good car service late at night). In this case, the door is on Ludlow Street and Chloe is right underneath the French bistro Casanis. So now you know. Doesn't the photo to the right look like a lucious banquette.

Beware, the leftover white subway tile from McNally's Schiller's Liquor Bar is a featured part of the decor here! Soft lights, red banquettes, nice date place if there was anything else around.

January 2009 - While it was announced during 2008 that Streit's matzo factory would pull up its roots on Rivington Street on the Lower East Side, the economic downturn of the summer and fall of 2008 altered those plans for the factory.
The company's initial hope was to leave the lower east side and move its factory operations entirely to New Jersey. This caused quite an uproar when it was announced in 2008; many decried the final days of the Jewish Lower East Side were near (Katz Deli still holds down a corner on East Houston Street).
