PI Update: The Performance Arena

We now know that The Edison complex is going to consist of 4 different venues. There's that hidden speakeasy, some sort of Italian quick-serve restaurant, The Edison itself which we believe will be a restaurant too with bars and then finally that oval "performance arena" that the Blog has made reference to many times over the past 9 months.

We've always referred to it as a "performance arena" because that's what The Edison in Los Angeles has but this one appears much larger and in recent weeks the rumors are saying "night club"!

Last December when construction was much less further along than it is now, the north side was wide open to peek inside as we did with our Blog's exclusive SkyCam. Please click to enlarge photo because you can see the venue inside is 3-levels high with the second level containing a wrap-around metal deck that you could stand on and look at what's going on down below.

Another view worth a click to enlarge with a better view of that wrap-around deck. Keep in mind that when BET Soundstage Club stood on this spot, its dance floor too was on the lower level (along with a bar) while most of the seating and more bars were directly above it. That middle level in this picture is ground level at West End Plaza, directly across from STK. We'll keep you updated!
