Theatre district hotspot Cafe Edison, which is a part of the Edison Hotel, might soon be no more. According to Vanishing New York, the hotel will not renew the restaurant's lease and the cafe is looking to change locations. Manager Conrad Strohl told VNY:
'They don't want us here.'
The marquees of Broadway will once again dim tonight; not to honor a great actor or playwright or director but to commemorate the passing of Harry Edelstein, owner of the theatre district's legendary Café Edison.
The Broadway League notes with sadness the passing of Harry Edelstein, the owner of legendary Broadway canteen Café Edison. He died on Monday at age 91.
