What is with the rumor abut Odessa closing???I hate rumors--I like Odessa.
I lived at the Parkside Evangeline - it was exactly like they talk about in the article, except since the Parkside was run by the Salvation Army, they didn't allow alcohol (which I smuggled in anyway).
I met two of my oldest NYC friends there, we're still friends. I can't believe it's a condo/hotel now.
