City takes 'Tavern' trademark

Last Updated: 3:02 AM, March 11, 2010 Posted: 3:02 AM, March 11, 2010 The former operators of Tavern on the Green lost a court fight yesterday to hold onto the Central Park eatery's...

"Tavern on the Green" by legendary urban planner Robert Moses. LeRoy -- who never told the city about his trademark application -- also acknowledged the city's right to the name in his license agreement, and "knew that his venture was merely one in a succession of operators of the restaurant," the judge ruled. "The city chose the name and each concessionaire and made significant investments to ensure the success of the restaurant -- such that 'Tavern on the Green' was closely associated in the public mind with a building owned by the city and located in New York's Central Park," Cedarbaum wrote. But the decision to cancel LeRoy's trademark applies only to the now-shuttered restaurant, not to the line of "Tavern on the Green"-brand dressings and sauces being marketed by LeRoy's family. City Corporation Counsel Michael Cardozo called the decision a "major victory," saying: "We have ensured that the legacy of the long-treasured restaurant will be preserved for generations to come."
