After attending an event at this space the other day, I came away trying to estimate the amount of…read moremoola needed to create a truly interesting, exciting event in the white, bare space. As a venue, it's classy and chic. From the perspective of an event planner, it's several months of work. The empty whiteness needs to be color lit, the audio needs to be set up and stretched to the far corners of the room and the ground needs something to un-hinge it from the wall and add dimension. Furniture needs to be brought in, electricians, and coat closet workers. The beauty is both in the simplicity of the space, and the amount of imagination (and $$$) to execute a really fantastic event or show here.

I was here last night for an event justfab.com was having in NYC. This style night event was to…read moremeet all of their New York members, as well as give us a sneak peak at their new jean collection. The gathering was fabulous, a cocktail party with a runway show that included special guest and great supporter Kimora Lee Simmons. The venue is a wide, clean space with high ceiling. A space that can be transformed for whatever event you are planning to have. The facility even has a kitchen for any catering or on-site entertaining needs. I was blown away with the setup JustFab had. A beautiful back drop, a runway with stage, white sofas on each side for VIP guest, three (3) bars, photo booths, a step and repeat, so much going on but the best part was the all white linen fitting rooms to try on our FREE new jeans... That's right, they gave us all free jeans from their new collection to take home. Fabulous event in fabulous venue, makes for a justfab time ;) Look into this space for your next event.

I've been to two events here recently. It's an exceptional space: huge windows facing west, a very…read moremodern, sleek and open setup and plenty big for even crowds of a few hundred. The AV setup, seating and everything else was really first-rate. You could certainly have a high-end business event here. If you're walking down Broadway on the west side of the street, it's in the back of 55 Broadway and you enter by walking along the north side of the 55 Broadway building; go past a Starbucks that's along the north side of the 55 Broadway building and the entrance is a bit hidden away towards the back.

Guests loved the space and I got so many compliments on how beautiful it was and what a great venue it was and it was very flexible in terms of set up in order to create a live music stage, DJ booth, dance floor and multiple bars & snack stations. Definitely recommend hosting an event that you want to host people at here!

I tried calling a few venues…read moreto see where we would have our holiday party but between playing phone tag and no call backs I went to Venue Tap. the website was very easy to navigate, I played around with the different options to see what would be our best bet. we ended up choosing Gansevoort Park after I spoke with Venue Tap. they were nice and very patient, answering whatever questions I had. when we got to the Gansevoort the staff was expecting us and they were great, letting us in with no problems. honestly, this was so convenient, everything was taken care of, there were no surprise charges (just the price of the bottle(s)+gratuity), or any other issues. I am already looking into booking my 25th birthday with them. strongly recommend!!

The venue itself is lovely, but the way the owner conducts business completely ruined the…read moreexperience. She was very polite during the process, but it was immediately concerning that there was no written contract -- only text messages and a Zelle request for deposit/ payment. We rented one room for $750 with a $150 deposit, then added the second room for $700 (and was charged an extra $50 just to use the existing wall-mounted TV?) and still paid $800 as a gesture of appreciation. For that price, you'd expect basic professionalism, but instead, we encountered hidden shady fees and poor communication. She failed to ever mention that the address on the door doesn't appear on GPS, forcing us to contact our entire guest list the day of the event to find the location using the next door funeral home. As a result, all of our invitations directed people to an address that didn't exist. She also tried to charge an additional $50 just to drop off a few bins of decorations the night before. After the event -- which was spotless aside from a few crumbs we missed -- she implied she might withhold our deposit due to the crumbs and supposed "damage" to an inner leg on a small portable bar we never used, as it was a children's party. When we asked her to review her cameras to verify, she ignored the request. We left her with the entire deposit just to not go back and forth with her. It's a shame because the space itself is great, but the owner's greedy, underhanded approach to business leaves you feeling taken advantage of. I would strongly caution anyone against renting here unless you're prepared for surprise charges and questionable practices.

Disappointing experience with The Farm Soho. My concern was not with having policies or…read moreexpectations, it was with the lack of clear, written guidance and how the situation was handled. I contacted Ray and later Samuel Poku regarding a policy issue and requested a copy or reference to the specific written policy being applied. Instead of providing the requested policy language, I was told that a separate detailed policy was not required and that the general rule applied. If a coworking space is going to issue warnings or threaten to terminate a member's access, the standards being enforced should be clearly defined and available in writing. Additionally, when a space advertises 24/7 access, using the amount of time a member spends in the workspace as a point of concern creates confusion unless there are clearly stated limits or guidelines. The back-and-forth communication took significant time away from the purpose of having a workspace. I ultimately decided the membership was not the right fit for my needs and canceled. I would expect a professional coworking space to provide clear policies, transparent communication, and consistent expectations for its members.

The entire place is so white, it makes me look like George Hamilton by comparison. But, that does allow for a pure base for design. And being that its located in the Chelsea Gallery district, it fits right in. Skylight Modern is broken up into 2 levels (each being its own venue, for a total of 15k sq feet) and in turn, each space must be booked $eparately (and it aint cheap). Of course it's Manhattan; what is? The top space is relatively small, but it doesn't feel that way- mainly due to the wall of glass that it is it's main entrance, as well as the numerous windows in the back of the space. There is a large stairway in the middle of this area that leads down to the other space. The lower level is where the majority of the Moderns size comes from. When I walked down the concrete stairs, into the high-ceiling, industrial oasis of a space, it reminded of that rave scene from Blade- minus the blood-sprinklers (well, I guess depending on your event). This area would be a clubbers delight, but is more geared towards fashion-shows and high-end events. So put your molly away and get out your MasterCard, because like I mentioned before- if you want to step into this space, you're gonna need to drop more dough than Michael J Fox in a baking class.
