Gemstone-Funded Nightclub Opens to Rave Reviews
GroupGemstone announced today that its New York nightclub investment, The Box, has opened to rave reviews and has quickly become one the city's most talked-about nightspots.
Recent regulars have included Uma Thurman, Sean Penn, and Mike Myers. Actors Jude Law and Josh Lucas, along with actress Rachel Weisz, sit on the club's board. According to the New York Times, “Lindsay Lohan appears to have turned the club into her New York pied-à-terre.”
Serge Becker, the nightlife guru who helped conceive the space, is fond of saying that he believes the Box is going to do for theater and nightlife what Area, the legendary '80s club he helped design, did for performance art and nightlife.
''They encourage a certain level of debauchery so people feel free to really let loose,'' said Nicola Vassell, the director of the Deitch Gallery in SoHo. Time flies by quickly, Ms. Vassell added. ''You walk in at midnight and next thing you know you're like, 'No, it can't be 5 a.m.' ''
The Box is located at 189 Chrystie Street, New York, NY.
The GroupGemstone family of companies operates in Real Estate Development, Entertainment and Apparel Retailing and invests in technology private equity. GroupGemstone was founded and is operated by Alexander Edelstein, and is based in Las Vegas.
