2001 Club, 2001, or '''2001 Disco''' as it was often referred to, was a popular nightclub located on the north side of the Town and Country Plaza building on Fairfield Drive. It opened in the mid-1970s to cater to the latest disco music craze. During the club's more productive years, 2001 was managed by Richard Sarli. It had a large dance floor, up-to-date lighting and effects, and two main bars. A smaller side bar called The Enterprise Room had a more intimate atmosphere, and often hosted small bands such as The Hi-Fi's, or the Instant Daddios. There were nightly drink specials, and best known was probably 'Welfare Wednesday', for the middle-of-the-week working crowd.
