Alpine Heights at Assembly to launch
Assembly Rooftop Lounge is transforming into Alpine Heights at Assembly, a modern ski lodge-inspired pop-up boasting hot cocktails, festive winter ales, comfort food, themed décor, cozy blankets and blazing fire pits, paired with one of the city’s best views – from Nov. 17, to Feb. 26. Assembly Rooftop Lounge is going north for the holidays and beyond, offering guests a winter lodge experience and unparalleled views. Open Tuesdays through Saturdays, 4-11 pm, guests can cozy up to one of four beautiful fire pits or under one of Assembly’s many heaters and toast the winter season with a boozy hot chocolate or mulled hot apple cider, or some sweet or savory fondue for a fun après-work or dinner respite.
