I was down there last night.....ghost town. Of course, it was a Tuesday so let's give them the benefit of the doubt. At least those Arkansas hillbilly's filled up some of their own empty space....

I just LOVE your posts..... :D

Of course you are right! All of these new businesses are going to be closed in a matter of months and they are wasting their money and time. I've got the tumbleweeds ready to release whenever you give the word.

Funny.

Nope....they got plenty of money to waste....let's see what happens in five years....I wonder if country western fans will flock there.

stuck my head in "today" (Tues).
very cool spot.

Was the Java Dave's layout like this?  I don't recall the high ceiling / catwalk.

They discovered that along with a spiral staircase during the remodel.

Bull, the owners have known that was part of that space there for years....

But add to the charm....every "story" helps.

Ease up, cowboy. You're being a prick lately. And we've seen what happens when you get that way several times over the years.


My avatar has you kinked up....relax.

Prick eh? because I offer liberty as opposed to control?

Save it for PM's....ok?

Went in Saturday at about 4:30 and had a beer.

Looked good.  They'd had some issues with the kitchen the night before with smoke from the pizzas so they were installing a vent hood.

Bryan said they'd been busy opening night (the night before) from open to close.

The menu is light for now as they are trying to get all the kinks out.

Two tables came in as I was there for just the beer so that 's a good sign to me.

There were people walking all around the area at 4 to 5 on a Saturday.  It's going to take me a while to get used to that.

Interesting... wouldn't have guessed them to have a kitchen or menu.
I'm thinking they need to add "eats" to the signage.

I remember a few years back when I would go around downtown and take photos that you could walk around the 5th street and Boston Ave area in the evenings and it would be so quiet that if a cricket were to chirp, the sudden noise echoing off those canyon walls would likely startle you.  Most evenings you would not find a single person on the streets, nor even a single car parked along Boston Ave.  Now, even in the evenings your very lucky if you can find an empty parking spot there. My usual spot to park is the next street over on Cincinnati, but I have noticed lately, that even those are filling up more often.  Can't wait for the day when I will have to walk 5 or 6 blocks to get to the museum.  ;D

Or a parking structure underneath your 12 story museum?
