Above Allen

Editorial Review

Lush Life, indeed. Stephen Sprouse prints harken to downtown ghosts, while shmancy $15 cocktails shout out to hood's posher present. Lofty rooftop opened in the dead of winter, but heated up fast. If you have the card, you'll skip the line and head right up to the top of the LES with the rest of the cool kids, otherwise look the part. Haunted by the coked-up ghosts of the Bar B situation, a dirty afterhours den that once gloriously wallowed where this shiny tower of glitz now stands.
