Bagatelle's highly amped music, can be heard for a long distance while those close by can feel their windows vibrate. With an outdoor cafe and with doors open wide, the neighborhood will be all the more inundated by noise. From the moment it opened last summer, people have complained about the decibels. Some residents met with Bagatelle's owners as recently as January 2013. The owners refuse to acknowledge what anyone walking by on a Sunday afternoon or Friday/Saturday night can clearly perceive i.e., it's too noisy.
ANOTHER VIDEO August 2012 about midnight. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WjDrfqj18d8&list=PLKLt45Kdwn2eHphMi0YFi007BII3WIFAj
Sunday March 24 outside Bagatelle about 5 pm . Their acoustic curtains are pulled across big glass french doors.. It's noisy ...view this last video: http://youtu.be/HKNvvOOtP1w
IT WILL BE TERRIBLE IF BAGATELLE IS AWARDED A SIDEWALK CAFE with music blasting through open french doors. This application has got to be denied by Community Board 2 and the DCA..PLEASE SIGN THE PETITION
Absolute nightmare. Keep the doors closed and stop the music from bleeding into the streets all night long
