NY NY - Tribeca, BlkFem 25-35, UP1885, Under Concrete in nightclub basement, heart earrings, Mar'08

[Bit of hope]

This blog post gives the entire history of Harmony (but is very NSFW). Seems like the former owner is still alive. I wonder if anyone ever showed her the reconstruction.

Thanks, loved to read it.

It looks like in 1984 there was a restaurant called Michael's located at 277 Church. Not a very good one, it would seem. It seems like it was cited every year.

This is an interesting find. I wonder how long this place was there for.

This is an interesting find. I was looking to see if I found any more info on this Michaels place and I found an ad in a June 1991 New York Magazine and the place seemed to be called Bernard and Steve’s

But I think more interesting is that next door, 279 Church St., was a sex club called Harmony Theater.

OoOh this is interesting. Old school dingy lap dance bar. I wonder if any of their girls ever went missing?

Yes, they found Myrtle Brown, because they were looking into older cases. She is not this UID.

Myrtle, who was 35, was never registered or admitted to King’s County Hospital, but the family learned she had been waiting in the emergency room when she had a seizure and died. The only information Myrtle gave to the hospital was her name and date of birth.

I believe this Jane Doe was killed in the 80's. The distance between Florida doesn't sit right but isn't impossible.

Doe Network accidentally marked her as Identified despite the article stating the case wasn't Myrtle. Could someone send an email to them about the error?

oof. Worst kind of "Tell me you didn't read the article without telling me you didn't read the article". And thank you, @Bit of hope.

@exhausted, I don't mean to sound rude, but it would be advisable to post a brief summary when you post articles in the future to avoid confusion such as what we're seeing here right now.

Inside the NYC Medical Examiner's coldest unidentified persons cases

They are the faces of the victims that have been unidentified by the New York City Medical Examiner for years.

abc7ny.com

by Kristin Thorne
''Adams is also trying to identify a woman whose remains were found in 2008 buried in concrete in a wine cellar in Tribeca.
Adams said the remains were discovered in a nightclub on Church Street while maintenance workers were fixing a broken pipe. As they were digging through the concrete, they found a large plastic bag.''
''They removed it and a human skull rolled out of the bag," he said.
The Medical Examiner's anthropology team was called in to remove the skeleton.

Adams said they believe the woman was African American between 25 and 35 years old. He said there did not appear to be any trauma to her body.

Adams said they found with her body a small purse that contained heart-shaped earrings.''
They were wrapped in a bubble gum wrapper. He said they also found two coins - one from 1983 and one from 1984 - which helps them narrow down that this woman died or was murdered sometime after 1984.''
