Bar Crawl (1)

With its glowing red Metropolitan insignia, seductive ads on a nearby digital billboard and swanky sports cars lined up at the curbside valet, The 9 is beckoning downtown revelers to break from East Fourth and West Sixth streets to wine and dine at one of its luxurious venues. From cascading chandeliers to claw-foot couches, each place inside the hotel and residential complex exudes urban glamour. Next summer, the 8,000-square-foot Azure Sun Lounge, a lounge by day and a club by night, also opens. Until then, we give you a tour of three high-class hot spots that elevate your night out.
