e of two things at once. When I called initially I got no answer but then the gentleman returned my call. I'm not sure if he was having a rough day or not but he came off very short with me. I was looking for a space for a year out and on a Sunday at that. I felt like he was trying to rush me off the phone with his questions and he shut me down as soon as I said I was looking to do a fashion show I wanted to do for about 150 people. Well according to their website it eays they can accommodate up to 140. Considering for my event I would not need any tables just chairs I thought it may be a great fit I could just reduce the number of people by 10. However I didn't get the opportunity to tell him anything else. He was too busy telling me they are not a good fit for me. To be clear I just needed chairs and to create an aisle way. It's unfortunate we couldn't work together because I love the pictures of their venue. It would have made for an amazing experience with dope pictures. I was doing the event for a charity but of course I didn't have a chance to let that be known because he was trying to rush me off the phone because "their event space was not a good fit for my event".🤷

vance which is very odd to me. Tried emailing and their responses take days to schedule a tour (15 days to be exact) . Also, no luck getting through to anyone on the phone. Tried again to schedule and have been waiting 3 days for a confirmation for appointment 2 days from now. I won't be planning my wedding here.

DING venue. The reasons why are very clear and were discussed prior to the event, so we knew what we were getting into. Pros: 1. The venue is GORGEOUS. Modern but but not overly so. The view from the rooftop patio is just wonderful. I'm not sure you can do better for the price. 2. Value. Because it is not a full service venue, you are not tied to using any specific vendors or additional service. This is huge. 3. Muyiwa, was prompt to reply and helpful. He sent reminders when payments were due and offered us a list of friendors, if needed. Cons: 1. Sound. If you are trying to throw a party, this is not the place. We were barely able to hear the music inside even though all of our guests were seating outside, so it wasn't that everyone was talking at once, it is just not a great venue for dancing. People didn't even know what our first dance song was and they wouldn't get up when their favorite song was playing because they couldn't hear it from the patio. But we dealt with it. The biggest problem was not being able to use a microphone outside. Nobody could hear any of the ceremony. We get that they can't disturb the neighbors, but there's certainly a middle ground here. 2. I wish that the measurements for the tables and exactly what is provided were detailed on the website. We had to email to ask the size of the cocktail tables. Something easy to fix, so this is a suggestion: the more details the better. 3. I wish they offered their own tent. Maybe for extra charge and just like they do with heaters. But it would make for a less stressful experience to know that if you actually need it, is there and you can make that decision close to your date, rather than dealing with other reservations and deposits for something you don't know if you'll actually need. 4.Lastly, It has been 2.5 weeks and we have not seen our security deposit yet. My husband emailed to check the status. I believe it will be sorted out, but as a suggestion, it should not take this long. Things to think about: =>It is a smaller venue. We had to get creative with the seating chart and ended up seating everyone outside, at their tables for the ceremony so that we could still have a dance floor inside. It worked out great for our 90 guests and everyone mentioned how gorgeous the place was. Granted, the weather was perfect that day. => Rectangular tables are a lot more efficient for space.
