Longaxis venue image for Ludlow House

Opened in 2016, the House is set in a 143-year-old former gold leaf factory in the heart of Manhattan's artistic Lower East Side. Ludlow House is a place for creative thinkers to meet, eat, socialise and relax — which we thought perfectly captured the vibe of Longaxis. Will we see you there?
