Runway Investor Walks to Eldridge
The Eldridge has gotten a ton of hype thanks to GoaG's uber nightlife personalities Scott and Naeem. And why wouldn't it? The place will have butlers, chaperones, porters, table attendants, and a hospitality consultant, all crammed into a tiny little place with 13 tables across the street from of the Lower East Side's finest housing. Just what we all need. Like our friends at Grub Street, we too actually are excited by the Charlotte Voisey cocktails, but are not too sure that these guys will be able to consistently execute the menu once its packed with their super exclusive customers sucking down all of those vodka sodas.
But here's a little juice you didn't. Thanks to another superstar Little Birdy, we learn that "Cole Bernard the owner/partner of the famed club Runway is an investor/partner in The Eldridge. This should give you an inkling of how good the Eldridge will be. Long Island Girls Galore." Our Little Birdy also tells us that Naeem from GoaG will be a doorman/promoter, which is probably why they could say "The Eldridge is going to be more exclusive and luxurious than anything currently out there. It is going to raise the bar on New York nightlife." Nothing like a little self promotion by those discerning night life voices. Pitty for us that we won't ever get in. Boo hoo. Boo hoo everyone. Boo hoo.

LOL. They don't get it, it's really funny that they think we'd want to go there. Get over yourselves people. there is more to life than going out to promoted venues. there is a world beyond the nightlife scene
wow. goag staked a lot on proclaiming this place was going to change nyc nightlife. just like mansion? just like 1oak? too bad this dude naeem (who the fuck is he anyway) has not been part of the club scene. this place will be doa.
Wow -- this whole CONCEPT gives me that "not-so-fresh" feeling.
losers.
Queen losers.
i'll be at the bea
i actually read goag all the time, but really can't stand the chick who runs it. on a much smaller scale, it is the equivelent of watching bill o'reily. you hate him, but sometimes just can't help yourself.
anyway, this little fiasco completely discredits them. some chump whoring out a website for a door job at lounge = extremely lame. i have no doubt she found this dude naeem on craigslist.
respect to dbth for putting this on blast...
couldn't help myself....rachel in college before she became such a sex and the city wannabe:

oh!!!!!!!!!!!! SNAP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You should really check your sources! Ashley Simko is a disgruntled ex girlfriend of one of matt levine's friends, who was left on the pavement at rose bar crying to be let in. for those of you who want the truth, tune in to GOG in the a.m.
those of us who want to truth about what? do you think that we care about some bitch who was an ex of someone we don't care about. this is a nightlife blog. we (and everyone else) conclude the eldridge will blow. end of story. matt levine is a tool. done. leave the gossip, high-school shit to your own site.
exactly my point. we do not care about the lives of people who bare no importance whatsoever. you and gog are socially irrelevant.
Scott S and DBTH has been strangely quiet since his big GET has turned out to be a big LIE. best to quit when behind I always say.
