New nightclub to open in former Sloopy’s spot in March

By Katie Wedell | Wednesday, February 16, 2011, 04:05 PM

The former Oregon District bar Sloopy’s, 613 E. Fifth St., which briefly reinvented itself as Bar Tiki, will reopen March 11 as Pulse Nite Club.

We told you about the bar’s sale and closing for renovation on the Lounge Lizards blog and Taste blog in early January.

The club’s new owner, Randy Handler, who also owns George Newcom’s Tavern, 418 E. Fifth St., and Clancy’s Tavern in Dayton, is promising a redesigned, larger bar and dance floor and tons of visual effects.

In a press release sent Wednesday, Feb. 16, he said the new club will have an upscale, classy feel. Vicki Waker of Cabinet Creations Design Gallery and J. Stanton, president of Southpaw Creation and Design, are heading up the club’s makeover. Stanton completed the interior design at SideBar, also in the Oregon District.

“We think people’s jaws will drop when they walk in here,” Handler said in the release. “There will be lots of things to look at.”

The club also will have a lounge area and there are plans to add a VIP “ultra lounge” in the back room of the club for parties and special events.

DJs will spin dance and Top 40s music and will be open Friday and Saturday nights from 8 p.m. to 2:30 a.m.

The club does not yet have a phone number. The Lounge Lizards will be sure to bring you more information on opening plans when we get them.
