The party starts at around midnight...but you may just have to be the first person to start it around 11:30. The dance floor is tiny. It is basically a square set off in the corner of the roof. On the Thursday night I went (no cover charge!), the dj played a lot of pop and hip hop with a cool mix of techno in the background. The dj hardly finishes an entire song, but spins one amazing song into another. We are a group of college and recent college grads and perhaps appropriate for our age ...this is a necessary transition from club to lounge...pha! At first impression, the scene was a bit too ""businessy"" for my econ major friend. She'd had enough of the card exchanging interview vibe already and wanted to leave. But we stayed longer because of the beautiful (as beauty can only be considered in downtown) view and...lucky we did! Because you wouldn't have guessed we were wallflowers a minute ago...but at 12 am...the party was on. People shed their suits and loosened their tie and did crazyyyyy moves. At one point, the whole rooftop was shouting out the lyrics of Guns n Roses ""Sweet Child Of Mine."" And when that apple bottom jeans song came on...we even had the security guard cracking up!
Pros: once the party's started, it's so hoppin'!
Cons: $15 parking lot (better to park in Library Bar's lot), takes a while to get the party started
