About Paradise Garage

Paradise Garage, once a cornerstone of New York City's nightlife, stood at 84 King Street in the SoHo/Hudson Square area. This membership-based nightclub, famous for its no-alcohol policy and legendary resident DJ Larry Levan, helped birth modern house and garage music. The venue operated in a former parking garage, earning its name from the space’s original use. While the building was demolished in 2018 to make way for Toll Brothers City Living high-rises, the legacy of Paradise Garage continues to influence clubs worldwide. Below you’ll find seating information, access tips, and nearby hotels and dining options to help you plan a visit to this storied site’s enduring memory in NYC nightlife history.

Note: Paradise Garage itself no longer operates as a venue, but its history remains a pillar of dance music culture.

We’ve included affiliate hotel and restaurant recommendations to help you secure comfortable stays and convenient dining nearby, along with practical transit details to reach the neighborhood with ease.
