Bushwick and East Williamsburg residents showed up last night. Community Board 1 held a public hearing last night on Pacha New York's liquor license for what would become an 8,000-person outdoor venue at the former Brooklyn Mirage site – down from an allegedly proposed capacity of 9,600. FIVE Holdings' Kabir Mulchandani – the Dubai-based billionaire behind the Pacha brand since 2021 – made an in-person appearance, delivering a 10-minute presentation to the board.
