Avant Gardner (Brooklyn Mirage)
Brooklyn Mirage is the outdoor oasis in the Avant Gardner complex, situated in the heart of East Williamsburg. It's open during the summer season each year, and decked out with thousands of plants and even palm trees, and boasting a KV2 Audio system, it's designed to be a sensory experience for both the ears and eyes. It is the outdoor component of Avant Gardner, an 80,000-square-foot development at 140 Stewart Avenue in an industrial corridor of the East Williamsburg neighborhood, a few grubby blocks from Queens. By fall, a warehouse (now filled with sacks of cement mix and construction equipment) will be transformed into an event space. Another area will become a 5,000-square-foot club. All told, it will hold 6,000 visitors.

Previously known as Profundo Day Club, The Summer Club just opened in Long Island City, Queens and has gorgeous views, an enviable frozen drink menu, plus affordable day passes & live DJ performances. There’s a new rooftop pool in town, and it may just be the perfect hangout spot for summer in the city! The Summer Club Rooftop Day Club & Pool just opened in Queens’ Long Island City, boasting elevated food and drinks, incredible skyline views and live sets from renowned DJs and musicians. The new city oasis was inspired by the kinds of day clubs in Miami and Las Vegas, with a lush floral archway entrance, palm trees and greenery, plus three full bars and 26 private cabanas along the terrace’s perimeter. At 24,000 square feet, the day club and pool overlooks the skyline and also features an outdoor dining pavilion. “At The Summer Club, we want our guests to feel as though they’ve found a hidden gem in the heart of NYC,” owner Seth Levine stated in a press release. “We’ve created a secluded summer oasis that offers both relaxation and celebration,” providing an “outdoor concept for NYC, having the largest outdoor rooftop pool day club in the city.” Guests can enjoy cocktails, wine, beer, and eight different specialty frozen drinks. For food, nibble on the likes of tuna tartare tacos, grilled chicken skewers, lobster roll sliders, and Chef’s omakase.
RSVP at Summer ClubSomewhere Nowhere Rooftop (Day)
A new rooftop lounge, nightclub and rooftop pool opening July 1 promises to deliver a full-sensory experience that'll transport you to a fairytale-like garden. Somewhere Nowhere is nestled on the 38th and 39th floors at the top of Chelsea's Renaissance Hotel and has a lush arched entry that leads guests through a dreamlike passageway where they are met with custom art pieces of gnomes and fireflies, neon signs and lantern sconces from another time. The gnomes are part of Sam Tufnell's collection he crafted from translucent resin and tinted with brightly colored pigment, humorously creating a glorified lawn ornament. Each one, which is unique, is installed on a lighted platform to glow in the darkness. Somewhere Nowhere will continue to work with artists to display their works throughout the space. The new club, which claims to be the tallest hotel rooftop with a pool in New York City offering an immersive escape, aims to "tantalize all five senses" using vibrant lights that will dim over time to signal day turning to night, whimsical decor by Let It Be Made 8, a state-of-the-art sound system by DNA Illuminations (the first club to use KV2 Audio Speakers in NYC), and even the scent of a magical forest. Guests can get a 360-degree view of Manhattan on the 39th-floor penthouse's outdoor lounge and open-air rooftop pool, where they'll be able to dance to music by international and local DJs. Somewhere Nowhere will bring the club to life with daily programming from pool parties with world-renowned DJs to captivating live music, or an immersive dinner experience with a magic show.

Le Bain
Perched high atop the roof of the Standard Hotel in the Meat Packing district, Le Bain offers party goers fantastic views, and a hip downtown crowd. In the summer, Le Bain features an indoor hot tub (complete with vending machines in the bathroom selling $80 bathing suits) and one of the most spacious rooftops in NYC nightlife (with a crepe stand, in case you get hungry.) Le Bain is also quite large by NYC standards- consequently it is usually not too difficult to gain entry during the daytime (as long as you show up early). Le Bain is an exclusive venue. Only roups of mostly females stand a good chance of getting in. = The crowd at Le bain is comprised primarily of scenesters and hip- downtown creative types. Corporate types and upscale types often frequent the venue as well, but most of the time must commit to spend a minimum at the bar. The venue is also a favorite of fashionable models and upscale sophisticated types who come from The Boom Boom Room. which is across the hall.
