Is Chumley's Going to Open Again?
If you believe Eater, which recently said Chumley's was being renovated, the historic bar in the West Village may be getting a second life:
I always loved this bar, even though it was no dive, it had charm and history going for it. I liked the vibe and the people, and all the bartenders I believe were FDNY guys. Hope it does open again.
Lo, as the photos above and below taken earlier this morning show, there are indeed rumblings at Chumley's. Workers are on site. Construction is beginning. Set your calendars to T-minus ninety days. Barring complications, late May/early June it shall be.
