Times Square's Iconic Dive Bar Jimmy's Corner Faces Closure
Originally Published 28 days ago — by The Guardian
Jimmy's Corner, a beloved and historic dive bar in Times Square founded in 1971, faces eviction due to building sale by its landlord, Durst Organization. The bar, known for its low prices, close-knit atmosphere, and historical significance, has been a community staple and a safe haven in a transforming neighborhood. The owner, Adam Glenn, disputes the eviction terms and hopes to reopen elsewhere if forced out, but patrons fear losing a piece of New York's history.
