Midtown Lounge Opens

Posted on November 17, 2008 in News/Updates, Out

Friday night I also excitedly attended the “opening” of Midtown Lounge, formerly Play Lounge, in Dupont. It was supposed to be a celebration of the end of a successful year forthe First Chukker polo team, but I doubt anyone else there knew they were there for that… or even what the First Chukkers were at all.

I have to admit, I loved it!

Play Lounge, once the adult playground of Dupont, blew out with a bang earlier this Fall. Its recent purchase by the Michael Romeo Group, and subsequent closing for immediate renovation, shocked some frequent Play partiers… Read the my entire post on the opening for the Examiner here.
