(46,657 posts)1. From what I've read about the place...
It had three floors, the top two floors could look down on the first floor, which was the dance floor.
Cocaine was a currency, to the bartenders on the second floor.
And the third floor had to be hosed down the next day since it was the make-out floor with big naugahyde cushions.
