Onetime Old Town office space to open this weekend as nightclub with Miami vibe
In its previous life, suite 104 at 300 N. Mead has been home to a construction company office and an advertising agency.
But this weekend, it becomes a luxury nightclub where frozen daiquiris will flow.
Adam Alkasasy and Raed Mansour, also the owners of Fever Night Life at 116 N. Mead, said they’ll open Lvl 1 (pronounced Level One) Nightclub & Lounge Friday. They’re considering Friday their soft opening — though anyone can attend — and Saturday their grand opening.
The vibe at Lvl 1 will be different from Fever, the owners say. The new club will play only Top 40 and Electronic Dance Music, and it’ll have the feel of a Miami or Houston nightclub.
“It’s very luxury inside,” Alkasasy said.
The owners have transformed the former office space by adding a bar, high-top tables fitted with black chairs, group seating with sofas and coffee tables, and a DJ booth. The dark club is filled with neon light fixtures, and there’s a dance floor in the center of the room.
“Everybody who has come into the building so far says, ‘Wow,’” Mansour said.
The club will charge a cover to enter only after 10 p.m. on crowded Saturday nights, the owners said. The cover charge will run from $5 to $10, depending on the night.
Lvl 1 won’t serve food but will offer a long list of frozen daiquiris and wines by the bottle. The club will also feature table service.
Alkasasy and Mansour have owned several other businesses in Old Town and other parts of Wichita over the years, including revivals of Town & Country on West Kellogg, The Chalet and Heroes. They also ran an Old Town club called 6 Degrees and a club/restaurant called Clouds. All have since closed.
They wanted the office building space for Lvl 1 because of its location in Old Town. It’s on the backside of the building that holds Old Town Square’s Old Chicago restaurant, and although its official address is on Mead, the new club sits on the northwest corner of Second and Rock Island, catty corner from Pumphouse.
“It’s on a very good corner,” Alkasasy said. “I don't think it should have been an office in the first place, to be honest. It’s very visible and in the middle of the scene. This is where a nightclub or a lounge or a bar needs to be.”
The club will be open from 6 p.m. to 1:30 a.m. daily.
Another Old Town club update
Just before Thanksgiving, another new nightclub opened in Old Town: Sin City Live, which took over an old hair salon building at 130 N. Washington.
At the time, owner Abel Rodriguez said he didn’t plan to close his other Old Town nightclub, Cabron y Vagos, which had operated at 301 N. Washington since 2022.
But he must have had a change of heart. The Cabron y Vagos Facebook page shared an update a few weeks later saying the club would close. The sign has since been removed from the building.
Rodriguez did not return messages about the closing.
