Cocktail Spot Apartment 13 Has Shuttered After a Year

After a temporary closure on July 4th weekend, Avenue C's Apartment 13 has shuttered for good. The team announces on Facebook: "Similar to a marriage, or divorce rather, our child (Apt 13), became collateral damage and fell through the cracks of a faulty foundation due to no fault of its own." John Keller, who is also the executive chef at Dinner on Ludlow, opened the space only last July. While it won't re-open, the team is planning another chapter: "We look forward to seeing you all in the near future at the opening of our next venture and invite you all to continue the journey with us as we embark upon Chapter 2." Although it never reached hotspot status, the bar had its fans in the cocktail world.
