Heath's Legacy

Before Heath Ledger‘s untimely death earlier this year, the Australian actor was a partner and investor in a bar he planned to open in Brooklyn.
Well, now, the bar is going ahead as planned!
Heath’s father, Kim, was convinced that Ledger would have wanted the bar to move forward. So, being the executor of his estate, he allowed the release of the funds his son had previously allocated for the project.
A Brooklyn boy until shortly before his passing, Heath’s bar is located at the corner of Lorimer Street and Bedford Avenue in Greenpoint (Brooklyn), New York.
The new venue has a nautical theme and it is going to be called Five Leaves (after “Swan cigarette papers that tell you when there are just five left in a package”).
It will be opened before the end of the year.
