David Mancuso's Loft party breaks through into 645 Broadway, which becomes its main entrance
David Mancuso had lived at 647 Broadway since 1965 and threw his first Loft party there on Valentine's Day 1970. In May 1973 the landlord let him knock out the brick wall dividing his space from the neighboring loft at 645 Broadway, and that loft became the party's main entrance. The expansion raised capacity from about 200 to 500 guests; he stopped the weekly parties in June 1974 and reopened at 99 Prince Street in 1975.
