Residents Hang Panties in Hope of Silencing Bar



NEW YORK (1010 WINS)  -- Some East Village residents and the Cooper Square hotel are facing off over a noisy outdoor bar.


John Montone reports


Residents in a East 5th Street building that neighbors the Cooper Square hotel say they are losing sleep and their sanity due the bar that is only inches from their homes.

The bar is only 29 inches -- or less than 3-feet -- from our windows one resident said, we hear everything.

The outdoor bar closes at 8 p.m., but residents say the indoor bar creates just as much noise. 

So they created a lingerie line of defense. 

Residents strung up soiled panties, bras, and other unmentionables in plain view of the bar, hoping it would remind patrons that people actually live right next-door.
