Andre Balazs may make Boom Boom Room private club

The champagne-swilling fashionable types crowding the door of the Standard Hotel’s 18th floor (once known as the Boom Boom Room) are leading owner Andre Balazs to consider turning it into a members-only club. Regulars at the top-floor lounge have been buzzing about it going the way of Soho House or the Core Club. “We want to en sure that our friends, whether they come nightly or less frequently from out of town, are always taken care of,” said Balazs via e-mail.
