Elsewhere Brooklyn is a multi-room music venue, nightclub, and arts space in Bushwick, Brooklyn. The space, designed by KGA, opened in 2017 and it hosts three stories of dance floors and stages, as well as a rooftop bar and live music stage.
The existing 1930s two story plus partial cellar and roof warehouse building was fully renovated and reinforced and a new 40-foot tall extension was built in the rear over a footprint of approximately 90’x59’. The space was designed to be column free and the roof was supported by two steel trusses.
Another extension was built in a side yard, and a new covered exterior staircase was built to provide direct access to the rooftop space. A new partial cellar extension was excavated and constructed below the existing building. The steel structures are supported by a combination of timber and helical piles.
