Tenjune New York City’s Best Place to Dance

Tenjune Nightclub NYC

Mark Birnbaum and Eugene Remm, co-founders of EMM Group, opened their first big New York nightlife sensation Tenjune back in 2006. Immediately upon opening, Tenjune was a big hit with party-goers and welcomed some big names like Kanye West and Diddy regularly. Six years later, it comes as no surprise that Tenjune is still considered one of the best places to dance in New York City.
Mark Birnbaum, Eugene Remm and Michael Hirtenstein have worked hard to sustain a reputation as being the top hospitality group on the east coast.

Tenjune, located in the Meatpacking District of NYC is what started it all for EMM Group and is just one of many milestones for this trio. The club still holds lavish parties for A-list hip-hop artists and incredible events hosted by the world’s most popular rappers such as Trey Songz. After the club’s revamp last year, the full LED ceiling has become a focal point of Tenjune along with the glow in the dark art work that emanates the walls. One thing that has remained the same, the popular horseshoe-shaped dance floor that has been driven by renowned celebrity DJs while New York City socialites dance to the radiating beats.

Tenjune was named in celebration of Mark Birnbaum and Eugene Remm’s shared June 10th birthdays. Since opening in 2006, Tenjune has celebrated more than just birthdays and has kick started EMM Group’s very successful career. EMM Group has since opened Catch NYC, Catch Rooftop Lounge, Abe & Arthur’s, Lexington Brass, The Chandelier Room, SL, SL East and has even partnered up with Angel Management Group to take over Revel’s HQ Nightclub.

Mark Birnbaum Named Most Stylish New Yorker

Mark Birnbaum Most Stylish New Yorker 
In addition to be remarkably successful and genius business owners, Mark Birnbaum and Eugene Remm, are now being recognized as two of New York’s most fashionable people. StyleCaster included the hospitality moguls on their annual list, The 50 Most Stylish New Yorkers.

To be fair, individuals were not picked based upon expensive, trendy couture collections or fresh runway attires, but rather a more unique, and self-inspired look. Mark Birnbaum and Eugene Remm, partners in EMM Group, were chosen simply because they are always on top of their game. StyleCaster hit the nail on the head when they said Mark Birnbaum and Eugene Remm “keep us inspired, surprised, and let’s be honest, a bit jealous.” Mark Birnbaum and his partners keep us inspired in many ways. Between their trendy hot spots like SL, Catch, Abe & Arthur’s, and Tenjune, all in the Meatpacking District, and the A-List parties and their luxurious lifestyle, EMM Group owners are admired by Most Yorkers. Their style is just an added bonus.

Mark Birnbaum recognizes high fashion, and has a level of respect for it. In US Weekly, we learned that “Birnbaum owns a rare pair of Converse, designed and signed by John Varvatos. ‘He made four pairs, and I got one of them. They’re like an art piece, so I put them in a glass display case,’ he says.” While we are busy admiring Birnbaum and Remm, they are inspired by fashion forward celebrities like Jay Z and Kanye West for their unique day to night attire. Being recognized for their innovative fashion sense is just another accomplishment of the already exceptionally successful pair.
