The First ‘Nice’ Restaurant in the East Village

"A cavernous nightclub on West 18th Street that became famous for launching extravagant Saturday-night parties called Locomotion, the venue blended roller-disco and hip-hop elements into a participatory, theatrical nightlife experience. It attracted DJs and an eclectic, celebrity-studded crowd and felt both glamorous and egalitarian during its peak, though its after-hours atmosphere grew darker deeper into the night." - Jonathan Van Meter
