NYC gyms reopen for indoor workouts
Insight from Michael Giliotti, owner of Intoxx Fitness Club.
A karaoke bar in Brooklyn was shut down over the weekend after violating … well, pretty much every law on the books.
The New York Sheriff’s office has confirmed that The Legend KTV, located in Borough Park, was ignoring the city’s coronavirus safety guidelines and illegally hosting 281 people, including one minor, on Sunday. The bar was also serving liquor without a valid liquor license, which had been revoked in 2019.

In addition, The Legend KTV was found to be in violation of a vacate order issued in 2018, and the establishment itself had only one exit in the event of an emergency. It was unclear whether the vacate order was originally issued as a result of the latter violation.
The New York Sheriff’s Department arrested six people “for offenses including child endangerment.”
