There are a lot of old business that have been in place for over 25 years and they get bumped in order to continue growth and progress in this city.
I remember people makiing a stink about Las Mananitas getting torn down after 26 years on Congress Ave. Nobody on this list cared. We all wanted to see the JW Marriott.
My second oldest son worked at Oil Can Harry's for a few years. (He's now 29 and lives in Chicago working as a personal trainer).
We aren't talking about a site like Greenwich Village's Stonewall Inn that has historical significance due to the riots and police.
We are talking about bars. Many bars have closed down over the years.
If they decided to convert 6th street to high-rises you wouln't hear a peep out of me. Let's do it. Or my favorite bar (Cedar Street). Progress happens
I am disappointed this building is essentially dead. I think what you wlll see down the road is a different developer slapping a high rise on that site and a less sympathetic city council approving it. AAAAnnnnddd... no accmmodations for OCH.
Just my stupid opinion.
