Those of you who prefer twigs and berries to mistletoe this holiday season will be delighted to know that tonight the “Adonis Lounge” will be hosting a private party featuring fifteen of New York’s “hottest Men”, lap dances, champagne room and full bar and “full stage show”. If the address of this establishment, 113 Franklin Street, sounds vaguely familiar that’s because it is the location of the Production Lounge. Perhaps they have decided to diversify from hip-hop to himbos?

Get your stripper rolls ready, ladies and gents. It’s going to be a bumpy (and grindy) night!

UPDATE, December 18, 2009: If my inbox and what I have been told in person today is any indication, both 311 and the 94th Precinct received a lot of angry phone calls last night. In one such case regarding the latter the desk Sargent advised the caller that this was, in fact, illegal but they (the police department) could do nothing about it. The he advised him/her to call 311.

This festive holiday tableau (which features none other than the 42nd President of the United States, William Jefferson Clinton, sporting a rather sizable cigar!) hails from Franklin Street.

P.S.: It is even more stunning after dark!

Something Neat: New Mural on Richardson Street

December 16, 2009 ·
Filed under: 11211, Williamsburg, Williamsburg Brooklyn 

There has long been a mural at the intersection of Lorimer and Richardson Street. Over the years it has fallen into a state of disrepair. Hence why I was very pleased to discover a new mural has taken its place! Follows are some highlights.

This mural, as with any work of art for that matter, is best experienced in person. For this reason I strongly advise that if or when the opportunity arises you swing by and give it a look-see. It’s really neat!

Many of you will recall the weather last Sunday was downright dismal. This is why I and undoubtedly many others stayed home. If Greenpointless’s lovely photographs from the Virgen de Guadelupe Parade on Manhattan Avenue (like the above image) are any indication, we missed out on something really special. You can view her entire set by clicking here. Go ahead and do it; you won’t regret it!

LIQCITYMany of you have doubtless heard of the massive cocaine bust which came to pass in Williamsburg last month. What you might not know is, if LiQcity is to be believed, our friends in Long Island City are having issues of their own. In a luxury condominium, no less:

Well well well. Apparently fancy shmancy Long Island City condos have drug busts, too…

You can read the whole story by clicking here.

P.S.: Half a million dollars in cash?!? Apparently there are some businesses that are, indeed, “recession proof”. Perhaps these brave entrepreneurs could tender some vocational training to our banking and automotive industries?
