Happy New Year 🎊 everyone! To celebrate we are highlighting the beautifully decorated White Horse Tavern in the West Village, which has been in business since 1880.
It is housed in one of the few wood-frame structures still in existence in New York City. The historic tavern was once a hang-out for dock workers on the Hudson River piers & was even open during Prohibition as it was a favorite haunt of Mayor Jimmy Walker. Writer and poet Dylan Thomas was a frequent customer of the bar and often drank in the back room, to avoid the crowds and White Horse was even the last place he had drinks at before he became ill and died in 1953.

Wishing everyone a very happy and healthy 2023. Thank you so much for following our feed and looking forward to posting more of our storefront photos from NYC and beyond in the new year!
