TEMPORARILY CLOSED. Remains a New York treasure, despite recent management upheaval. Tread in footsteps of Twain, Dylan, Warhol, and Christo. Eclectic charmer has inspired all manner of artist since 1884. Storied past rife with creative bursts, celebrity conceptions, glorified destruction, and legendary misbehavior. Retains the aura of endless possibilities. High ceilings, relaxed, bohemian atmo. Groovy lobby decked with guest-donated artwork. Unique rooms run the gamut from jackpot to double whammy, still a better bet than roulette.
