Kathy Kirkpatrick, the president of Life Cafe Inc., explains why she put the shuttered restaurant's trademark up for sale: "It's a brand that will work throughout the U.S. and the world....I have always had international patrons coming, making special trips to the East Village just to eat and drink at Life and connect with a piece of New York history." She's also starting a website that will act as a "virtual place of pilgrimage" for fans of the musical Rent. [EV Grieve]
