yes its true, factory will be re-opening, the design aspect has already started. New name will probably be called Choclate (dont know why). I do know man that is designing it and also the sound tech that will put the new system in. Set to open in 5-6 months. However wont be what it used to be.
on the flip side you want to go out, here is the weekly breakdown of NYC
Monday - Butter (celeb central)
Tuesday - Select (hottets girls in NYC)
Wed - Cain (great house music for a wed night)
Thursday - Marquee then Bungalow 8 right around the corner
Friday and Saturday I stay home and rest. Partying during the week is better, its a much different crowd and the clubs are not jammed pack. Need the hook up to any of these spots let me know, I have plenty of friends in the industry
