PI Update: Remembering What Remains

With last week's 15th anniversary of Pleasure Island's passing, we wanted to take a moment to remember what little remains of our beloved Island. Irish bar and restaurant Raglan Road is still there under its original name. It was operational when PI closed and we don't recall being able to go there during the evenings when the Island became a ticketed event.

Adventurers Club is still there, heavily renovated to become The Edison. Although much has changed inside, one can definitely detect some AC when you're there!

Of course 8TRAX still exists. The front upstairs part of our beloved club was shaved-off and became retail as you can see facing Hill Street. The middle towards the back became part of the kitchen of Morimoto Asia. In between, directly behind the retail store and the kitchen, we're told, is a small piece of 8TRAX standing still in time. We'd like to check it out sometime!

Lastly, Mannequins still looking like its former self although now completely taken over by the Morimoto Asia restaurant. If you've not been inside, behold there area where the light wall was, look up and see where the DJ/Tech booth once overlooked the action below and notice the thin concrete floor where we're certain the former revolving dance floor still resides! Unfortunately, this is all that remains of our wonderful clubs. The buildings holding Motion, Rock'N'Roll Beach Club, Soundstage and Comedy Warehouse were all demolished,
