Parkside Lounge, Lower East Side, NYC

Parkside Lounge in the Lower East Side, NYC has been in business since 1956. Before it was a bar it operated as an icehouse & there even was a tunnel downstairs that used to run all the way to the river so that ice from the river could easily be transported into the house.
Today the co-owner Christopher Lee has lovingly maintained the bar’s vintage neon signage which you can see all the way down Houston Street.
