Greenpoint Nightclub Studio B 4 Sale!

Time for plan B? Things aren't looking so hot at Brooklyn club Studio B—Grub Street is reporting it's on the market "for $1 million and a $22,000-per-month rent." The club, based on Miami's Studio A, has been hitting roadblocks all along since opening in Greenpoint two years ago. But so far neighbor complaints, stop work orders, Miss Heather, and illegal rooftops haven't been able to shut the doors for good...until now? Promoter Justine D also shared her departure from the establishment in an email today, explaining: "I've been busy making the transition from STUDIO B to an amazing new venue called (LE) POISSON ROUGE." Currently their calendar runs through the end of January.

"Why name a club "undercooked chicken"?"

Huh? In which language does 'Studio B' translate to that? I assume that's the club you're talking about, since I know that the English translation of 'le poisson rouge' is 'the red fish.'

Why name a club "undercooked chicken"?

It doesn't sound very appetizing, and I'd be afraid of getting salmonella poisoning.

Well if the club is based on a Miami Club, we should be paying Miami prices:

You give me $ 500,000 and I'll take your lease at half price IF you have the cash now.

Otherwise, I'll just rent the place from your landlord for $5,000 a month and put in a sneaker shop in six months.
