Musicians and Artists Affected by East Village Explosion Persevere Past the Rubble

The explosion and subsequent fires in the East Village that occurred on March 26 destroyed three apartment buildings, a handful of businesses and, in one afternoon, displaced hundreds of New Yorkers. This one corner tucked between East 7th Street and 2nd Avenue served as a home and studio space for various artists and musicians, including singer/songwriter Laura Gibson, who was in her fifth floor apartment at 119 2nd Ave. at the time of the explosion.
