Name the space formerly known as Galapagos

Name Our Space

I guess they changed their mind about "Natural Selection"...

We need your help to rename the performance space formerly known as Galapagos. The new owners of the Williamsburg venue plan to keep the space as it is for the most part, with the addition of improved audio equipment... and a new name.

Check out the space at www.70north6th.com

Submit your suggestions here and you could win a $1,000 bar tab, plus a year's free admission for you and a guest. [Nameourspace.com]

they should just swap names with the old chikpea owners since theyre looking for a name also. How about Club Glatt Kosher Shawarma and Falafel?

Northsix ....... for nostalgia.
Brohemia ....... that's a good one.

How about the name of their website, "70northsix", or a play on the old name, "Pago's Gala"?
