Hey Williamsburg: What The Hell Is That Place?

Have you ever walked down the street in Williamsburg, for example, and been like: what the hell is that place? Those paper mache horses in the window and unwieldy name seem to indicate that it’s an art gallery, etc etc. Most of the time the answer IS art gallery, but

Harold Night at Upright Citizen’s Brigade
