We were promised by Greg Peck and Matt Moss at a local meeting over a year ago that the <br />2nd floor bar would be interior only. So we stuck it out. Try having a shovel waved at your head with a construction idiot yelling "I'll kill ya!" while Matt Moss, the "owner" stands by shaking his head. Try drills and jackhammers in your living room wall at 6:30 in the morning (7am is legal but who am I to complain?) Try feeling like a chimneysweep because their nouveau riche fireplace belches out toxic smoke that goes right in our windows. Try being laughed at by herds of morons up scaffolds when you ask when their evening shift of drilling will end. Try having your pets die because of the vibrations in the wall. Try having no light for nearly two years because of scaffolds literally connected to your front and back windows. Then try listening to packs of indifferent New Jersey types as they guffaw about their latest testament to prefab over-consumption... The East Village may be far from its bohemian heyday, but it has a character defined by those who chose to live here. Not to mention the three brownstones demolished to erect this flacid penis extension. This hotel, like the other two Midtown beacons of glass, is an embarrassment with an infectious idiocy. By the way, it has two other names locally: the Dildo Hotel and the Giant Vibrator.absurdmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09087039835582663583noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-683382864156505640.post-10819595461502147402009-05-27T01:40:49.933-04:002009-05-27T01:40:49.933-04:00Funniest thing I've read in a while.
