Market Hotel Raided By NYPD, Closed Temporarily<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n
I know what you\u2019re thinking: typical DIY venue! Didn\u2019t bother to get a liquor license! It was just a matter of time! Well, that\u2019s not really the case. The space has a nonprofit status, which means they could apply for event permits, which acted like a temporary liquor license during\u00a0shows. One was recently denied, but that was only because the venue is in the processing of applying for an actual liquor license. So, the NYPD was able to swoop in before the staff could remove alcohol\u00a0stored for an upcoming event- an event they had no reason to believe would need to be dry. As this excellent piece by The Observer<\/a> points out, compared to bars in the immediate area, Market Hotel has virtually no 311 complaints\u00a0and does important work in Bushwick\u2019s community instead of just getting people drunk. Plus, they host amazing shows and similar spaces are going out of business left and right.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/li>\n
