Williamsburg Dive and Music Hall Spike Hill Is on the Chopping Block

The bar will likely serve its last beer in early December. Let's face it, Williamsburg has pretty much morphed into hipster Disneyland, complete with two Starbucks locations and absurdly priced condos. Now, Spike Hill, a bar and music venue that's long been an anchor for Bedford Avenue, is shutting down. The building is under contract and there's no official word on when the doors will close, but an employee told Gothamist that "early December" seems likely.
