I was confused for a time because I recognized the Hotel St. George as part of that scene, but others cited the Edison Hotel. This video clears it up.
When I was growing up in Brooklyn, a visit to the St. George was an incredible treat. The hotel, the largest in the city at the time, had a 120 foot saltwater pool with a waterfall, as well as a gym and a steam room, all of which were open to the public for an admission fee.
Ntra la porta tua lu sangu � sparsu, E nun me mporta si ce muoru accisu... E s'iddu muoru e vaju mparadisu Si nun ce truovo a ttia, mancu ce trasu.

I had no idea about that history of Hotel St. George, thanks for that. Someone on the video commented that at one point before it closed down the original bar location was a strip club.
