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:

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.


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.

St. Pat's Video Blast



Get ready for St. Patrick's Day! In a brilliant PR move, The Town Tavern (134 West Third Street) created a viral video of the action from 2007 to send around town to get people into the bar in 2008. The wild bar in the West Village is notorious for huge parties at big events like these.

With Paddy's Day falling on a Monday this year, it means the serious drinkers will be out in force. Or else, a 3-day weekend?

Thanks to Katie for sending NYCBP the video.
