27th Street Shuffle: West Chelsea Nightlife Mogul Snatches Plagued Megaclub While Amy Sacco may or may not be selling Bungalow 8, Jon B, owner of cash cows Home and Guest House, is in contract to purchase another slot on the coke-dusted Monopoly board that is West Chelsea. Having convinced the yoga-loving owner of Spirit, Robbie Wootton, to abandon his fight to reopen since the club's forcible closure in August, Jon B says he'll take over its West 27th Street space and bring an upscale crowd to rock shows and big-name D.J. performances. "I intend to operate it totally differently," he says of a space that has been under scrutiny since its days as Twilo. Of course, Jennifer Moore, the New Jersey girl who was murdered in July after a night of clubbing, spent her last hours at Jon B's Guest House, and the subsequent nightlife crackdown raises question about how easy it'll be to transfer Spirit's liquor license. After Wootton pays off the estimated $6,600 in State Liquor Authority fines, Jon B estimates it'll be two or three months before a transfer is granted (a year-end freeze on new licenses in the area has caused a backlog of applications). After that, he says, it'll take another few months to turn the place into something "very different than what everybody is used to." And what's a suitable name for this new club, something that outclasses even Jon B's other venues, Home and Guest House? Alas, Mansion is already the hottest club in Miami. —Daniel Maurer Source

This doesn't sound incredibly promising. In fact, it kind of sounds like it'll suck, a lot.

hey ghb, been a while

I am not gonna put up any predictions bc I tend to listen to my pre-jusdgements a bit too much and not give it a chance. Hey, you never know.

If we have another great new club in NYC, who am I to complain? And if it sucks, I just wont go. plain and simple.

iono...im starting to just think the NYC nightlife is JUST dead.

case in point: STEREO -- what was gona happen with that place?!!!
all i see coming out from Stereo are DJS that I don't wanna see.
(DJ Merritt wtfff)

so much for promising.

the only decent places left are like PACHA (quickly diminishing) and Cielo as mainstays...I guess Crobar but only because they can pull in DJS. otherwise, no thank you. i'd rather stick with local and underground or w/e

What is going on with that place? I haven't even seem a lineup! Stereo is SUCH a great club in MTL, but if people in NYC dont get any advertising, wtf are we supposed to know whats going on there? Hope they start bringing some talent in, bc I would LOVE to see that place go off!!

I'm curious. What does everyone think about PACHA's success in NYC?? and do you think it has been just AS successful and renowned as PACHA in Ibiza? are they bringing in similar caliber of djs? I'm curious on this one...

the NYTAS that have gone to Ibiza can answer this one

That place should stay closed... the place was sketchball city before and now its going to the Guesthouse, Home route. Agreed, the prospects look shitty, like another Duvet, pretentious crowd and tough entry.
