City Rag
, lately reporting all sorts of downtown institution closings, has photographs of Meow Mix's now permanently closed doors. The Lower East Side lesbian bar shut down its East Houston Street venue due to too much tangling with the city (random fines and closing) and flooding, as well as the smoking ban, but its owners will announce their new space at the end of the month on their website. Look for Meow Mix to return in mid-August (just in time for the Convention).
Meow Mix was immortalized in Kevin Smith's Chasing Amy as being just a club to two clueless Jersey boys. Read the script, via Drew's Script-o-Rama.
