And another one gone. Their last day was, well, yesterday. And we’re still getting over DBA and D.B.A.:

“New York is making it impossible now for anyone to make a buck doing anything creative,” said [former owner] Trimboli, who said the landlord approached the current owner with a new lease where the rent was tripled. “I am sure that sports bars or bars that only have cover bands will stay open forever.”

Artists and musicians say they are disgusted at the rate at which venues are being pushed out.

“If New York City wants to become an occupied territory for the wealthy only, by all means, let’s just admit it and stop pretending already,” said Rachel Eisley, founder of Teleportation Arts, a multi-disciplinary art collective that operated out of a loft a few doors down from Goodbye Blue Monday until the landlord found a higher paying tenant. “Good luck with further gentrification at such a pace. Once the artists are forced out, we will not be paving the way for you anymore.”
