For years, I often wondered what was behind that door just below the Estonian flag near the corner of East 34th Street and Second Avenue.
I had no idea there was a bar and a small kitchen in that building. I knew the place was private, but upon entering for the first time nearly 10 years ago with Estonian acquaintances, it had the feel of sitting at the bar of a VFW that could be located in small-town Iowa or a big cith such as Chicago or Denver.
It’s a classic building that stands out on a block where anything old is rapidly disapperaing in the name of ’progress.’
Hopefully, that unique structure is landmarked.
