These Dudes Know How To Form A Labor Union Party
Jeremy Levitt and Andrew Cohen, have an office that would make any cubicle drone jealous. Outfitted with a fully loaded bar and a pool table in the main lobby area, it's no wonder the space in NYC's Soho was the perfect site for their recent "Labor Union Dinner" party.
As the founders of Parts and Labor Design, the firm behind the impressive and stylin' aesthetics at Tribeca's recently opened Atera, Levitt and Cohen work with plenty lot of Jacks in various trades.
