On Friday night Ludlow Manor had its official opening party in New York's Lower East Side. The three story club is owned by Georgie Seville (The Delancey) and Luc Carl, a former bartender, also known as Lady Gaga's ex boyfriend. While the venue was plagued by some Community Board drama involving noise and crowd control, Carl and Seville prevailed and the new spot threw their  rock 'n roll and mermaid-themed opening party.

The multi-plex is 12,000 square feet, with  20 foot ceilings, real palm trees, a retractable roof, revolving DJs, and has "one of the best rooftops downtown." The crowd "definitely had a rock 'n roll and hipster vibe." Well, duh.

For those of you house-loving, hip-hop thumping, or Britney Spears head boppers, this is not the spot for you. But if you want leather, fashion mullets, chains, grit and rock, this is the place to be.
