On the West side of Union Square stands the Union Square Wine & Liquor Store.
Inside, you could buy that wondrous elixir, Jack Daniels, for $27.99 a fifth.
As you stand in the doorway of the store and look across the square, you can see the columned building that was once Tammany Hall. To the left is the "W Union Square Hotel" - they have a winter weekend special where breakfast is included at the rack rate of $390.00 per night.
Political Bosses having moved elsewhere, Tammany Hall now hosts a theatre and a Film School. It also rents out space to a liquor store - Mikes, where you can buy a fifth of Jack Daniels for $22.99.
If there were no buses or trucks in the way, it would be easier to see from one liquor store to the other - there is only one block, and five dollars a fifth, between them.
