Thi...Haha, I'd like to order a case of déjà vu. This was very near another of Manhattanville's Civil War-era beer taverns. Mrs. Parker's Lager Bier Depot once stood at West 131st Street just east of Twelfth Avenue (most recently the site of the West Market Diner). There's an 1862 photo of the enterprise on page 92 of my book, "Manhattanville: Old Heart of West Harlem." But even not so distantly, beer gardens were fairly plentiful around central Harlem. One of the swankiest was the Harlem Tavern which opened in the former Connie's Inn space on Seventh Avenue and 132nd Street in 1933. I'm glad to see beer gardens making a comeback.Tagging-the-Pasthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12790018133396862711noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2048034911181517049.post-88579911584757009062016-05-13T17:36:16.288-04:002016-05-13T17:36:16.288-04:00That's super exciting!!
