Here's another recently opened lounge from the brains of Bourbon and Branch and the Rickhouse. Just like Thomas Keller's Napa tri-restaurants, the triad has been formed to deliver the city's best lounges and (fresh) libations.

Local Edition is probably one of the spacious lounges I have been to in the city (and believe me after living in the city for more than 6 years I've been to many). According to my happy hour chums, Local Edition doesn't have drinks comparable to the Rickhouse, but the not-so-crowded, speakeasy space in the Hearst Building compensates for it.

Tip: You can order Rickhouse's cocktails at the Local Edition so you can get the best of both worlds- good drinks and ambiance all-in-one.
