Another Addition to the Gowanus Nightlife
Gowanus is getting a live music venue, adding to the list of nightlife additions cropping up in the nabe. At this week’s CB6 meeting a cabaret license was approved for 177 2nd Avenue, between 13th and 14th. The 5,000-square-foot warehouse will be transformed into an “old school music hall” featuring live soul, rhythm, and blues….

The 5,000-square-foot warehouse will be transformed into an “old school music hall” featuring live soul, rhythm, and blues. It’s set to finish construction in two months. One CB member expressed approval, noting, “This is in the spirit of what’s happening now in Gowanus.” We wonder if this one will be color themed?

“white boy head banging music”
Where?
Lucky 13 is the only “metal” bar around that I know of, but they don’t have bands (normally- like, maybe a couple per year).
Bell House has mostly NON head-banging shows. I wish they had more.
Actually, South Brooklyn is severely lacking in head-banging music.
“So i guess all of the expensive million dollar condos that line 10th & 11th Avenues don’t count?”
Ryan, did you read the question? He asked which areas that had a night life didn’t have condos that shot up within 5 years. West Chelsea had warehouse clubs through the 90s, a lot longer than 5 years before condos started moving in and by then the clubs were closing down.
Yay – it reminds me of the old days. Shouldn’t be too hard to find parking either!
Fantastic. Can’t have enough of this. I just went to a concert at the Bell House. The sound was excellent, and the venue is so beautiful.
“is there any neighborhood that started out as a nightlife district and didn’t have expensive condos sprout up within 5 years?”
West Chelsea
@NYGuy7 So i guess all of the expensive million dollar condos that line 10th & 11th Avenues don’t count?
@dirty_hipster Your commentary is 100% on point. The sense of entitlement with a lot of slopers, well folks in general boggles my mind. Every naib in NYC is allowed to change except “yours”?

Crossroads on Third has Salsa nights. And Bell House has way more variety than “headbanging”.
thank goodness, something in the nabe other than that white boy head banging music.
