5 Stop 5 of 10 on Bodies, Bohemians & Basement Bars

Minetta Lane

A Preview

"See this little curved alley? Minetta Lane. It bends because it's following a stream. Not a former stream. A CURRENT stream. Right now, underneath your feet, Minetta Brook is still flowing — the same brook that ran through here when the Lenape lived on this land and called it Manette, which roughly translates to Devil's Water."
