That last credential helps explain the tiny dwelling's various eccentricities, which include ceilings and walls made of "antique Redwood from a discarded Greenwich Village rooftop water tower" and a bathroom covered in "reclaimed wood, stone and tile."

On Being 'An Englishman in New York'

For a man who's been touring worldwide since the 1970s, it seems only fitting that Sting would explore the idea of returning home to northern England in his semi-autobiographical musical "The Last Ship." The show, now on Broadway, tells the story of a shipbuilding town and its cast of characters struggling to revive their hometown economy.

Bleecker Street was at the epicenter of the 1960s counterculture, and Cafe Au Go Go opened on February 7, 1964 at 152 Bleecker Street, offering a "varied mix of blues, jazz, folk, stand-up comedy, avant-garde performance and film, and, by the late '60s, psychedelia."
