Red Lotus Room

edited November -1 in Crown Heights/Prospect Lefferts Gardens
So I was reading ILoveFranklinAvenue's blog and someone mentioned in a comment a place called the Red Lotus Room. In googling, all I can find is three things:

1. It's at 893 Bergen (between Classon and Franklin)
2. It's mentioned twice on 4-square as a place people are
3. It is called the Red Lotus Room Cabaret one of those times.

Anyone know what it is? Is it a club that hosts parties? A venue for performances? A bar that is secret?

Anyone know anything? Thanks!

    Ok, the person commented again since people didn't know what it was.

    Yea there isn't anything on it. It looks like a garage door, but when you go inside, it's beautiful!

    893 Bergen (between Classon and Franklin)

    I don't think it's open for people to just walk in, it's just for parties.

    Shanghai Mermaid also does alot of parties there. Two weekends ago, they had a big Chinese ball/festival.

    I went to a cool party called BONZAI and it was EPIC. Awesome artwork, awesome performances.

    Not sure if this is the place I went a few years ago for a PsyTrance Rave. No that was actually between Classon & Washington, my bad. Geez, 7 years in the hood & I still don't know these street names.
