The is the view from the Sixth Avenue entrance of the former Limelight nightclub. The bones of the old space have mostly been obliterated, although one can still peg the former location of the DJ booth. The main floor consists of about a dozen retailers whose boundaries are defined by aisles instead of walls. When I stuck my head inside tonight, they were pumping out dance music at the same infamous Limelight volume. (So it seemed to my now much older ears.) Missing, however, were the dealers, the club kids, the drag queens, the go-go boys, the slumming celebs, etc etc.
