Cielo Velvet Rope? Barbed wire might be a more apt description; SAIFF cordially invites you to a club that combines credible music with a glam clientele. After sufficient grilling from the requisite outlandish bouncers, a narrow hallway illuminated by a single blue light leads you into a sceney New York moment. CIELO'S space is cozy and conducive to some serious grooving even its bar and beautiful doorstaff will help you relax after a long day at work. The stylish boite features colorful yet subdued lighting, lots of banquettes, and cozy seating, an exquisite sound system and separate lowered dance floor. The interior of this small club is very 22nd Century Airport. It is designed like a Ski chalet (the warmly lit walls resemble insulating "logs") meets beach surf (the pool-blue, sunken dance floor is as inviting as a mid-summer dip), this small spot caters to those seeking a rarefied atmosphere. CIELO Nightclub in New York's Meatpacking District provides a transche of Mediterranean glamour to an area that already has distinctly Norman air.

Dream Hotel Float away on a cloud at Dream - and wake up to an entirely new hotel experience. Just recently open in November 2004, Dream combines the vision of hotelier Vikram Chatwal, a mind-enhancing lobby and three separate bars and an Ayurvedic healing center created by spiritualist Deepak Chopra. Welcome to "Hautel Couture". Escape through the hotel's revolving front door and be taken on a trip both to the design world's past and future. Walk on sleek, modern black floors and gaze up into the vaulted, mirrored ceiling reflecting blown glass flames sitting atop decorative columns. Huge charcoal murals and an antique bar serve as a welcoming concierge desk and cappuccino bar. To complete the lobby's design elements, 1940's style seating and hand-carved lion heads greet guests upon check-in. Passing through the lobby to any one of the three bars will take you under a colossal crystal boat, by a world-class aquarium, and a stoic copper statue (circa 1915) of Catherine the Great sits atop a waterfall to invite guest's minds to wander.

The Gershwin Hotel The Historic Flatiron Fashion Hotel.

The Main Lounge is designed in the Pop Art fashion with bright sectional colors accented with plush oversized couches and pulled together by a retro style DJ booth.

NA For once, the hype seems justified: NA, the city's latest temple of exclusion, has easy glamour and palpable energy. Filled with a New York crowd—breezy socialites and fashion eccentrics as fizzy as their drinks. The main floor, reminiscent of a fanciful Victorian boudoir, has a lustrous mahogany bar, a jungle of leafy plants, clubby circular banquettes, sky-blue ceilings, dripping chandeliers, and a stage for live performances. Staircases on either end lead to the lower level, modern and jazzy (think fusion-era Miles Davis) with its large dance floor, brash artwork, and colorfully backlit bar. The club, of course, was once Nell's, and so far NA conjures that legendary nightspot's joie de vivre: A members-only policy (it helps if you're a friend of co-owner and club namesake Noel Ashman or owners Chris Noth, Petra Nemcova, Damon Dash, Samantha Ronson, Simon Rex, Joey Mcintyre, and David Wells) certainly hasn't deterred the clamorous and glamorous from lining down the block.

Ziegfeld Theater The city's most famous and historic movie palace! There is no bad seat! The Ziegfeld is one of the very few remaining single-screen monster movie theaters in the city, and it's beautiful. It seats around 1200 people, has a screen bigger than an indoor soccer field, velvet draped walls, and seats so comfortable you want to take them home with you. This is the kind of place you want to go to see a big-time movie. The only trouble is that frequently the theater is used for movie premieres, the kind with red carpet and celebrities pouring out of limousines, so on certain nights, you won't be able to get in. Named after Florenz Ziegfeld, "The Most important and influential producer in the history of Broadway musical." |
