Vivid Cabaret

 cabaret, commercial building

4-story commercial building originally completed around the 1870s as a 5-story townhouse. The lower half has been heavily altered, now clad in stainless-steel and aluminum panels and a metal mesh panel. The ground floor has a service door on the left, a dark-tinted window, an angled, recessed entrance door, and at the right is a recessed stone stairway up to a higher-level entrance. A suspended metal-and-glass canopy covers the three western elements of the ground floor. The top two floors retain most of their original appearance, with three bays of windows with segmental-arched lintels. The brownstone cladding is painted dark-grey, and the facade is crowned by a black metal roof cornice with brackets and panels. The building is now occupied by Vivid Cabaret, featuring a 25-foot dance pole, and opened in 2013.
