Easygoing Hells Kitchen locals, start your dreading now. New to the city's rooftop scene is Highbar, the ICrave-designed, swanky spot from Greg
Brier (Aspen, D’Or, Amalia
). Offering a spare modern feel, complete with kicky striped seating, a
backyard BBQ menu, jaunty house cocktails and, natch, Miami-esque
private beds for lounging. The space can hold around 200 people
outdoors and 75 in the adjacent lounge, equipped with a
state-of-the-art sound system, DJ booth, and visual elements. That's
all we know for now, but it is a pricey rooftop bar located a
stone’s throw from Times Square, which very likely means two
certainties: the "young professional" crowd in all its glory, with
tourists thrown in for good measure.
