Gatsby's Review

June 10, 2002 Checked out the ominously named new bar Gatsby's last night. Located on Spring Street and Mulberry -- right near the groovy store Fresh, where the other CS works -- it signals the imminent demise of NoLiTa. An Upper East Side bar on a cool downtown street. Frat types cheering wildly for the Lakers (!?). Akin, in a sense, to Essex Street's Smithfield (which is, its its dive-like way, a more acceptable watering hole... yet still, beneath it all, an Upper East Side-y kind of place.)
