Bohemian Hall has the last remaining Outdoor Beer Garden in all of New York City. In 1892, the Bohemian Citizens' Benevolent Society was formed, and in 1910, the Society purchased two adjacent lots, part of a farm. The cornerstone of Bohemian Hall was laid that October. At one time, over 800 beer gardens were in New York City - three in Astoria alone. Only Bohemian Hall and Park survives to carry this proud tradition into the new millennium! The rediscovery has a price: Bohemia can be overrun with hipsters.
