Twilo
Appearance
Twilo was an American nightclub in operation from 1995 to 2001 in New York City and from 2006 to 2007 in Miami.[1]
Closing
Twilo had been under pressure to close from then-Mayor Rudy Giuliani ever since the launch of his controversial quality-of-life campaign.[citation needed] Still, the club managed to hold onto its cabaret license until early 2001, when a spate of previous allegations re-surfaced in connection with a claim by city authorities that the club had misused private ambulances to hide victims of drug overdoses.[2] Club management claimed that the ambulance was obtained by recommendation of the city.
