Deep Down Below Ninth Avenue

Steve Lewis sends word that the Meatpacking District has still not run out of space for pretentious nightlife spaces. No more luxury hotels with swank lobby bars or former meat markets converted into trendy clubs. The future is below ground. It seems there is a new space under development below Ninth Avenue that is co-owned by Steve Hanson featuring "12-foot+ ceilings and actual street manhole covers as part of the ceiling". Access is through Ara. While Lewis did not notice any ongoing construction, the space had previously been marketed to nightlife's heavy hitters. Paging Noel Ashman.

This is old news but it would be nice if Hanson finally gets it up and running. It had to wait for Hog Pit to disappear first.

But... ain't he some hot-shot i-banker who's just not a morning person but yet can party and host all night long and make his typical early-in i-banker job in time?
