Runway:
For some, Runway’s name invokes images of models, Tim Gunn, and Anna Wintour; for the rest of us, it invokes some involuntary snickering. Though this part of town is far from what you might call an “edgy club zone,” there’s a handful of ballrooms and lounges hoping to lure in the local crowds. Located one flight up from the lobby of the Latham Hotel, this place features...wait for it…a runway right down the center! The backdrop of a turn-of-the-century hotel ballroom and the usual mix of 2002 club favorites keep the dance floor throbbing, on weekends only of course. (It’s hard to make it over the bridge during the week.) And judging from the prices of Runway’s large "by-the-bottle” list, we have one thing to say…you better work!
