The Essex Ale House (formerly 12" Bar, formerly Filthy McNasty's) recently shuttered. But it's the location's formerly, formerly, formerly that reveals itself in this 1980s photo taken by reader Seena Liff:

And this shot of Love Saves the Day, from before it went to 7th and 2nd. It's a rare capture of a lost piece of the East Village.
