Check In, Swim Out: A Floating Hotel as Art By  MELENA RYZIK Published: July 10, 2011 As boat christenings go, this one was rollicking. In lieu of a Champagne bottle smashed against a hull, there was late-night bourbon and  diving  off the roof of the Queen Zenobia into dark waters lighted with natural phosphorescence. Nine strangers in bathing suits floated on an overwhelmed inflatable  raft ; a couple held hands on a pair of deck chairs; a moose head in a houseboat was decorated with a headlamp and a bra. Though the official ceremony would come later, on Friday night the Boggsville Boatel and Boat-In Theater, New York City’s newest and perhaps loopiest tourist outpost, was open for business.

Norton, who has worked as a steel sculptor, and as the director of  installations at PS1, opened Peachfrog in November  with Howard Blumberg, a professional liquidator. With more than 20 years in the business, Mr. Blumberg knows  how to find sweet deals that bigger stores overlook. “We’re different  than Marshalls or Syms or even Century 21. Peachfrog,  he explained, zeros in on “voided inventories,” lingo for all the  merchandise that falls through the cracks, which he defines as “store stocks,  samples, odds and ends, returns, irregulars and mixed lots.” The high-ceilinged showroom used to house a spring-roll factory, and some of its  features have been incorporated into Peachfrog’s design: the changing  rooms are located under the range-hoods of the factory’s former kitchen, and  expanse
