StreetLevel: Heaven or Hell at New Atlantic Ave. Bar?

A tipster writes in to inform us that the Atlantic Avenue building that was originally a synagogue (and, more recently, Time Trader Antiques) has not lost its religion. On the contrary, the subterranean space between Hoyt and Bond appears to have undergone an extensive renovation in order to transform it into a high-end lounge named Deity. Judging by the soon-to-open bar’s website, Deity’s décor combines stained-glass windows, leather seating, exposed brick, a logo design based on the Star of David, and a new age sensibility. To wit: Deity’s site claims the lounge is adorned by goddesses of light…a meeting place for the artisans, friends and family of Deity—for the people of Brooklyn. No clue how expensive drinks are going to be or when it’ll officially open, but it’s definitely going to be interesting to see how much thirst there is for this sort of place in Boerum Hill. GMAP
Simple equation –
Get tons of hot women – men follow – drink tons = $$$$$
Get few or no hot women – men are intimidated by decor – stay away – no one drinks = closed within 3 mo.
if they get some good press on this place, it could really become a hip spot.
looks like a club i went to in buenos aires.
glad to see it.
some people just like to hate everything. it’s a projection of the feelings they have towards themselves.
ignore then.
If I ever decide to open a place, I dread to think it will ever appear on brownstoner. So many haters…
I wish them well.
criminally vulgar.
Looks interesting but all those pics of the “twin” women in orange are hilariously cheesy.
Looks like a “classy” swingers club.
it must be a vanity project for the owners, I don’t imagine it can get much of a return. People go drinking in the area because it is cheaper than going into town and more laid back as well. You need outdoor seating, long happy hours, no style control, and economical beer. Do they even sell food in that cave?
we dont need shit like this pretentious club. look at the artists websites, that photographer is a joke.
what happen to the antique store?!
