“Most music venue operators I’ve encountered are familiar with M.A.R.C.H. to some extent—it’s part of the vocabulary of running a venue in New York City. But its inner workings remain obscure, even to many of the venues the task force threatens; most known information about the M.A.R.C.H. operations is anecdotal or else pieced together from first-hand experience.”
I wanted to learn about the NYPD’s opaque “Multi-Agency Response to Community Hotspots” task force that has routinely shut down music venues, bars and restaurants around NYC, so I filed some FOIL requests.
