History

The lease ran to 2025; the bar runs on

Reservoir, just south of Union Square, calls itself a local institution known for its food, its cocktails and "a rockin' sports scene"1; Time Out filed it under sports bars2. A real-estate listing for 70 University Place said the bar's lease ran through October 2025 with 3% annual increases, and that even so the rent was well below market3. October 2025 has come and gone, and Reservoir still gives 70 University Place as its address1, 4.
