Billy Jones Way was unveiled during a ceremony on Sunday,  on the corner of Bedford Avenue and Broadway in Brooklyn, just down the street from Baby\u2019s. Jones <a href=\"https:\/\/pitchfork.com\/news\/billy-jones-babys-all-right-owner-and-new-york-nightlife-fixture-dies-at-45\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">died<\/a> in 2025 from glioblastoma. He was 45.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBilly did more for music in New York than what can be put into words. Every fresh-o\ufb00-the-boat artist or music obsessive who was smart enough to send him a message, got a reply, a co\ufb00ee, and, more often than not, something that felt like the beginning of a story,\u201d said Baby\u2019s owner Tom Moore during ceremony. \u201cWhen Billy saw that blend of sound and vision, he cheered it on. He knew that this was the most basic principle of show business\u2014that an audience made an idea into an act, and that an act could become part of the big story. Baby\u2019s All Right is the house that his cheer built and where countless stories have started since.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>In addition to Baby\u2019s, Jones opened New York City venues including Night Club 101, Elvis Guesthouse, the Dance, and Funny Bar. Following the street unveiling, Baby\u2019s All Right hosted a party featuring surprise sets from Blood Orange, Porches, Fcukers, and more.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Image may contain Fathia Absie Sarah Josepha Hale People Person Clothing Coat Adult Accessories Glasses and Wedding\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"ResponsiveImageContainer-dkeESL cQPiWi responsive-image__image\"   src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/BILLYWAY-32.jpg\"\/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Billy Jones, the late co-founder and owner of Baby\u2019s All Right along with several other New York City&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":377202,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[36],"tags":[98,100,99,9,24,12,63,8357,990],"class_list":["post-377201","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-brooklyn","tag-brooklyn","tag-brooklyn-headlines","tag-brooklyn-news","tag-new-york","tag-new-york-city","tag-news","tag-nyc","tag-textaboveleftsmall","tag-web"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/377201","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=377201"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/377201\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/377202"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=377201"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=377201"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=377201"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
