“Top 10 Bars in NYC” - Bon Appetit Magazine “Best SoHo Cocktail Bar”- New York Magazine “Scene & Be Seen” - Vogue “Top NYC Bar” - GQ Magazine “Top 10 NYC Bar of 2014” - amNY “Top 10 NYC Cocktail Bar” -TimeOutNY "Top 12 NYC Cocktail Bar" - Thrillist Lower East Side restaurateur, Matt Levine (whom previously owned Lower East Side staples, such as The Eldridge and Sons of Essex) and his indieFORK team opened their new 150 person "throwback" classic cocktail lounge and piano bar in May 2014, The Handy Liquor Bar in the heart of SoHo, located at 527 Broome Street (between Thompson & Sullivan). The Handy Liquor Bar is named after 1800's New Orleans bar keeper and mixologist Thomas Handy, who is known as one of the first expert barman in the United States and created what we know today as the Sazerac cocktail. Before his death in 1889, Handy recorded the recipe for the cocktail and the drink made its first printed appearance in William T. "Cocktail Bill" Boothby's 1908 "The World's Drinks and How to Mix Them." The original Sazerac cocktail, as first created by Thomas Handy, now lives on 527 Broome Street at The Handy Liquor Bar. Head barkeeper William Bastian, known for experimenting with new distilled spirits and mixers, with the help of master mixologist Albert Dempompeis created a time-honored cocktail list inspired by the classics. Textbook cocktails such as the Dry Martini, Gimlet, Manhattan, Mint Julep, Old-Fashioned and of course the Sazerac with a modern twist make an appearence on the menu. Featured cocktails are composed of freshly squeezed juices along with the use of unique bitters, garnishes and seasonal succulents for creative twists on our timeless classics, along with all homemade, infused and smoked syrups. Owner Matt Levine states the cocktail list at The Handy is "focused on the classics, quality and simplicity." The wine list features such classic and vintage wines as the 1995 Chateau Margaux Red Bordeaux Blend, 2003 Vega Sicilia "Unico" Ribera del Duero, 2004 Sine Qua Non 2003 Bond "Vecina" Napa, Valley Red Blend and 1991 Bodegas Riojanas Viña Albina Reserva Rioja. The Handy Liquor Bar offers a "small plates and snacks" menu from the adjacent Chalk Point Kitchen created by Michelin Star & Rising Chef Award Recipient, Executive Chef Joe Isidori along with Chef de Cuisine, Blue Hill and Mas Farmhouse vet, Chef Frederick Schoen-Kiewert. Snacks will include Classic Oysters Rockerfella (with a hint of Madras Curry) and Warm Black Truffle and Gruyere Tea Sandwich (served with Pomme Frites). Levine commissioned Chien Dao, the architect behind The Crown, The Lion, MoMa Curator Loft, Jade Jagger Building and Levine's past restaurant, Sons of Essex, to design The Handy Liquor Bar. Dao sums up the design elements for The Handy Liquor Bar as "authentic NYC, classic SoHo, music influenced, restored and timeless." Dao's use of classic moldings, custom rosettes and trims shows his dedication to detail. Dao describes the furniture balance of custom marble table tops, persian rugs, victorian armchairs, plush leather couches and the chesterfield tufted banquets a "design for unpretentious luxury, sophistication and comfort." Along with classic Jazz memorabilia, vintage cocktail leather bound books, mix and match antique frames line the ceiling to contrast the auburn and burgandy color theme. Many of the photos lining the mahagony wood walls are from the Summer of 1977 in New York City. They are authentic and original photos that appeared in a New York Music Magazine called "Rock Scene" from various acclaimed music photographers of the time. Most are by legendary New York City photographer, Bob Gruen, including candid portraits of Blondie, Michael Jackson, New York Dolls, and Patti Smith. Actor, author, and art enthusiast, Hill Harper purchased the entire archive all of the magazine issues and all 630 original photos that appeared in the magazine for four months in the summer of 1977. Many of the photos are from two legendary art and live music venues in New York City, Max's Kansas City (a favorite hangout for Andy Warhol, Lou Reed, Iggy Pop, and The Ramones), and CBGB's. The Handy Liquor Bar features a 1950's Wurltizer Baby Grand Piano to accompany a vintage Wurtilzer Jukebox playing Jazz, Funk and Motown vinyl's, featuring records from such icons as Billie Holiday, Benny Goodman, Charlie Parker, Dizzie Gillespie, Ella Fitzgerald, John Coltrane,Louie Armstrong, and Miles Davis. The Handy Liquor Bar features live jazz daily, 7:00pm to 9:00pm with DJ's on weekends spinning Disco, Funk, Oldies and Rock & Roll. Platform International, a construction team known for building out international art fairs and festivals such as Frieze Art Fair, Scope Art Fair, and Untitled Art Fair built out the cocktail bar and lounge. This is Platform’s first restaurant. Platform's list of exclusive art displays include Matisse, Picasso, Warhol and Basquiat. Owner Matt Levine describes The Handy Liquor Bar as "combining an authentic atmosphere of timeless comfort along with classic cocktails and great music."

The Michael Ingbar Gallery began in 1986 and focused on showing and representing primarily abstract, non-representational work. A transition came about ten years later that shifted the intent of the gallery to show work depicting imagery solely of New York City. Since this transformation in 1992, we have shown and represented many artists including painters, sculptors, photographers and printmakers. It is our goal as a gallery to explore architecture from an artistic standpoint, focusing on its value as a creative expression. Our efforts have primarily been aimed at heightening public awareness and appreciation for the rich architectural heritage of New York City, as well as the value of its historical preservation.

www.merchantshouse.org Built in 1832, the Merchant's House Museum is New York City's only 19th century home preserved intact, with original family furnishings and personal belongings. A unique survivor of Old New York, the House offers a rare and intimate glimpse of how a prosperous merchant family and their four Irish servants lived from 1835 to 1865, when New York grew from seaport to thriving metropolis. "The distinction of the Merchant's House -- and it is a powerful one -- is that it is the real thing. One simply walks through the beautiful doorway into another time and place in New York."

Our communal West Village space between Charles and West 10th St on one of the most charming blocks of Bleecker Street has become a neighborhood fixture. Our mission is to invite local and international artists to display their work without the commercialization that hinders artists in more established galleries, while engaging the neighborhood and providing accessible art on an affordable basis. Many of our artists are finding new collectors, some of whom are only beginning to find their passion, making this endeavor most gratifying to Maura and Rob Geils, the volunteer curators of the gallery. As a valuable amenity for the building and its shareholders, we invite the neighborhood and our friends to join us in our celebrations introducing the artists every 6 weeks or so. The 350 Bleecker community prides itself on its important anchor position in the West Village, and as such strives to open its doors in order to provide a rare community service to all who join us. Please contact Maura Geils with any questions at 646-296-5215.
