POV is great for all seasons! In the winter time, cozy up inside with large glass windows overlooking the city, and still get a glimpse of the balcony terrace with heaters and plastic covers. It's perfect in the summertime when the plastic opens up to expose the view-- and realize that you are overlooking into the president's backyard!

Dodge City is a great spot for the hipsters and indies to gather for dancing without having to put on heels. It's a more casual kind of house party on this corner. It gets crowded really quickly, so efficient service is hard to come by, which only proves the levels of fun being had by the many visitors to these dance parties.
