Bunnies stage comeback at new venue

The tightly corseted Playboy Bunnies, with rabbit tails and ears, will soon be back in business in New York City.

Three decades after the original Playboy Club closed in Manhattan, an apparent victim of changing tastes in the United States and views on women, a new one will debut later this year in a hotel a few blocks from Times Square.

The club on West 42nd Street "will be one of the most chic and sophisticated venues in the world," promises Playboy Enterprises spokesman John Vlautin.
