Crobar Coming Soooooooon!!!!!

[msoprano]

This was taken from the vip board:

In order to open up a nightclub in New York City, you'd better be an angel

or a saint. At least, that's the impression I got watching the two-hour song

and dance given by Crobar representatives to Community Board 4 last

Wednesday night. Club owners Callin Fortis and Ken Barilich did everything

to prove that they are model citizens, not like those other club owners

(Sleazy, Shady, and Skanky). Fortis and Barilich brought in an army of

people to testify before the board-including former Miami Beach mayor Neisen

Kasdin, ex-special narcotics prosecutor for New York City Robert Silbering,

and, believe it or not, a Tibetan monk, the Venerable Nicholas Vreeland, a

liaison for the Tibet Center on 32nd Street, who gamely offered, "I guess

I'm here to represent the spiritual side of Crobar." The only people not

present to vouch for Cal and Ken: their mothers.

It worked. The board approved 38-8 to open a club on 530 West 28th Street,

across the way from the ill-fated Twilo and Tunnel. The space-at 40,000

square feet-is gargantuan, and has been eyed over the years by many club

owners, including Peter Gatien, whose name was invoked repeatedly at the

meeting, since a Page Six item had linked him to the Crobar peeps. Of

course, Fortis and Barilich did everything to distance themselves from the

fallen club king. At one point, a community board member read parts from a

letter written by Space owner Luis Puig-a competitor of Crobar in South

Beach-implying Crobar was in cahoots with Gatien. Apparently, Puig had also

set his sights on the West 28th Street spot, but after turning down an offer

from Gatien, claimed that Gatien told him he'd "never have that building."

Puig suggested Crobar and Gatien had set up a similar partnership deal.

Fortis denied an association, stating that the charges were "put out there

intentionally to hurt us," and told the board, "Luis Puig and Peter Gatien

would have made terrific partners." Ouch.

If Fortis and Barilich are in a deal with Gatien, they are doing a fine job

of pissing on his already tarnished image. Next step for the dapper,

tall-and-tanned Adonis Crobar boys-a week's vaca, and hopefully approval

from state and city agencies for a real superclub. "

[jaysea]

OPENING> From my "Source" Says sometime in Early December, They really want it to be ready by the End of summer, but there is alot of Design going into the Walls, and Venue itself, with out even Starting to do the Decor, lighting ,sound, bar's and everything else, it really kinda depends on the contractor's. and who is doing the construction.

Not to mention the Designers who will be coming in once there "Vision" of the Structure is complete.

witch is all being decided NOW,

[bsb2002]

everyone celebrates now, but the only thing that is really important is who the DJs are. and no one seems to have a clue about that. Crobar Chicago is horrible, so don't get too excited. sorry to be a downer

[rocketfuel76]

to agree. But I've been to crobar in Chicago and it absolutely sucked. It reminded me more of a gothic kinda place, all the workers were dressed in Goth Clothes, and the music was pretty Much horrible. There was this guest DJ from the UK forget the name., there the one night I went, and even he SUCKED. In retrospect though, I hope maybe they will change it a bit.

P.S. the line also sucked, I had to pass the door man $20.00 not to wait on the block long line, and once I got in, I was sadly, not impressed. I also didn't only go to this place once, I gave it about 3 trys before I decided that IT REALLY SUCKED. But again, who knows????
