Speakeasies have a long and checkered past in New York City.When alcohol was banned in 1920, bars and saloons had to go underground to keep operating and remained there until alcohol became legal again over a decade later in 1933.During the Prohibition era, bars were usually hidden behind or underneath legal businesses and often run by organized crime syndicates.
