Music Sway opens tonight

Posted by Lindsey Millar on Thu, Jul 29, 2010 at 10:34 AM

Sway, Marcus Pinkney's new dance club at 412 Louisiana, opens tonight at 8 p.m. That address is the former home of The Factory, which Pinkney owned, and, more recently, SpeakEasy.

We told you it was coming back in June. Here's what Pinkney said about the space then.

Elements of Design and Lighting Innovations have been contracted to help transform the 3,500 square-foot space into what Pinkney said is the sort of dance club you'd see in a larger city. The floor plan sounds promising: A dance floor in the middle of the room, framed by seating raised four to six feet and looking down onto the floor. The rear of the building will offer a 600 square-foot patio — the only place where smoking will be allowed.
