Palisades was a New York City live music venue located at 906 Broadway in Bushwick, Brooklyn.

Founding[edit]

Palisades was founded by Leeor Waisbrod, with Rose Fathers, and Ariel Bitran.

Operations[edit]

The venue began hosting art shows in April 2014 and started hosting concerts shortly thereafter.[1] Palisades presented hundreds of concerts between 2014 and 2016, including performances from bands such as Parquet Courts, Skepta, Xiu Xiu, Guerilla Toss, and Hinds.[2][3][4][5] In its final year, Palisades presented performances by bands such as Bodega Bay and Useless Eaters.[6][7]

Closure[edit]

In June 2016, Palisades was shut down during Northside Festival. An article in Gothamist explained that the venue had been shut down due to multiple building code violations.[8] Management initially stated that the venue would only be closed "for a few days," but in August 2016 it was announced that Palisades would remain permanently closed.[9][10][11][12] Several previously booked concerts were rescheduled at other Brooklyn venues such as Shea Stadium.[13]

In popular culture[edit]

Following the increased popularity of the venue, Palisades was featured on the cover of the New Yorker in April 2016.[14]
