History

Palisades was founded by Leeor Waisbrod, with Rose Fathers, and Ariel Bitran. The venue began hosting art shows in April 2014 and started hosting concerts shortly thereafter.[1] Palisades presented hundreds of concerts between 2014 and 2016, including performances from bands such as Parquet Courts, Skepta, Xiu Xiu, Guerilla Toss, and Hinds.[2][3][4][5]

Following the increased popularity of the venue, Palisades was featured on the cover of the New Yorker in April 2016.[6] Three months later, in June 2016, Palisades was shut down during Northside Festival. An article in Gothamist explained that the venue had been shut down due to multiple building code violations.[7] Management initially stated that the venue would only be closed "for a few days," but in August 2016 it was announced that Palisades would remain permanently closed.[8][9][10][11]
