Here's a nice stroll down memory lane for those of you who were lucky enough to go to ARC when it was still open. I just came across these great photos online and thought about sharing them with all of you.

Re: a night at ARC

Excellent pics. remind me of when I was last there back when it was still Vinyl (2002). :D

Re: a night at ARC

that was a great space, tenglia's parties at arc were fucking unreal. just a good old fashion house party.

thanks for the pic

Many thanks brother!!I like it!!Nice Photo!! :mrgreen: :wink:

Nice Photos...that was a great space always had a good time there

ARC was extraordinary. Certainly very missed. Appart from Cielo, there doesn't seem to be any decent club in NYC these days, no? wf

I have had so many great nights at Arc, espescially all of the Howells nights, as well as Lee Burridge and Deep Dish. The 112 nights was awesome as well. I miss that place. Nothing compares. I wish that it had never closed. At least I am saving miles on my car 8)

:( I go a long was back with that old space, back when it was called "Shelter." NASA, Body & Soul, Shelter Saturday nights (aka Sunday afternoon) was about a deep as house music gets.

The NYC historical society should get a foot up their ass for this and Pallaidum getting torn down. :x

Unfortunately, as a New Yorker you can't experience anything similar to that at any other location.

Thanks for those pics...damn do I miss that place! But one thing about em, Arc was way too dressed up that night. The true charm of the place was in those dark grungy nights, no decorations in sight, the place looks virtually like a warehouse and everyone is just dancing and sweating it out to the tunes. :D

and damn right bout the historical society...clubs around this country get no respect. Those were some damn groundbreaking locations that shouldn't have ever been turned into condos and NYU student dorms!

I'm 31 dude! :shock: I play off 25 really well.

Palladium in particular, I think some of the younger cats on this site would flip if they could have gone to a big party in that space, it was cavernous. The friggen back room was bigger than alot of clubs.

Re: a night at ARC

great pic, thanks !!! i miss being able to walk their from my apt, heard some of the best music ever there especially when it was vinyl

Re: a night at ARC

That place was amazing...that fucking system was second only to Stereo in MTL. I wish that all the DT haters on this board ( especially the limey's) could have gone to one Be Yourself. They would be singing a different tune. Those DH parties were amazing also, I spent many a night in front of the DJ booth with that Masshole Mixwell.

Re: a night at ARC

That makes me miss ARC even more. We should tell Danny to open up another one. I know it wont be the same, but we can all dream cant we. :cry:

Re: a night at ARC

he fucked up on the transition from the 1st to the 2nd track that night :lol: but he is still an amazing dj :D

Re: a night at ARC

You are all very welcome about those photos. It just took a little digging around the net and there they were.

Man I really wanna get my hands on one of those t-shirts. Anyone out there got one they'd be willing to sell...in great condition that is!!

I wish there could've been some photos for the Be Yourself nights there.

Re: a night at ARC

Does anybody know the name of the artist that did the crying face piece which used to hang outside Arc's entrance?

P.S. I swear the same artist is featured at Starbucks across from Grand Central on 45th St. Go and check it out for yourself!

Re: a night at ARC

i used to know. i forget!

go on [url]www.madevents.com[/url]

ask there, the people who ran ARC post regularly...they will tell ya

Re: a night at ARC

maybe they would still be open if they served liquor, like every other normal club...

Re: a night at ARC

what difference would that make when the party is raging at 9am on a Sunday? There are plenty of clubs with bars that close down. NYC is a political quagmire and clubbers aren't exactly the strongest entity is city politics.

Nope...

Arc closed because the owner of the building wanted to turn it into luxury condos... Finances had nothing to do with it...
