Overview

This tri-level dance and lounge space is mostly remarkable for the disparate crowd it draws. On Thursday nights 2 hours of free booze with no cover brings out scores of boys to the PopRock gay bash, while Mondays are poetry readings and Sunday's are Brit night.

History

Split personality since 1996

Back then we said the three-level club was mostly remarkable for the disparate crowd it drew, with poetry readings on Mondays and Brit night on Sundays. A venue guide now sums it up as a three-level club with intimate dance floors, a rooftop deck and split-personality music programming since 1996¹, which is the same point in fewer words. In our day Thursdays came with two hours of free booze and no cover; in October 2026 its parties were listed at $46¹. In September 2026 RemyMidtown LLC was on the community board's liquor-licensing agenda for the address, as a bar, tavern and lounge².
