HEATHROW LOUNGE OPENS
Clubland welcomes it’s newest Washington Avenue destination as Heathrow Lounge comes in for a splash landing at 681 Washington Avenue for July 4th opening party. Jose Ortiz hopes to blend an upmarket venue with some Downtown grit in a UK-inspired club that caters to socialites, strippers and celebrities. The club divides into 4 theme rooms - Wilde Manor (rock star habitat), Hyde Park (a burlesque forest), Milk Bar (mod Ziggy Stardust meets Clockwork Orange) and Spy Bar (James Bond’s martini lounge). Check out local favorites Midas, Contra and Johnny the Boy kicking off the party at this new venue tonight and tomorrow at 681 Washington Avenue. Let’s hope the fire marshall got his lunch money so he doesn’t cut the party short like he did at Aero Bar’s opening weekend!
