Yes, that is Centrepoint, arguably a beautiful building in probably the grubbiest junction in the whole of Big London and a mere hop, skip and a grope away from Soho’s glittering gays.
What is most excitement, however, is that the gennelman behind Century on Shaftesbury Avenue, Pierre Condou, has had the cheeeenius idea of turning the top three floors of said Centrepoint into a private members’ restaurant/bar/club/thing. It’s name? Paramount.
Natch.
Now we’re a little confused as to progress on said establishment, as we heard it was supposed to open, well, around about now-ish. It’s all a bit ???, really. But in the meantime, looky here and start saving your fag money…
I too would like to join this establishment. No doubt will reek of wankiness, but hey freaking ho.
A shame they can’t sort out the bottom three floors, and those skanky water-less fountains.
I heard over the back fence that it was a PR scam and it will never ever happen – that building is cursed, cursed I say.
