Bad idea in that spot-Thorek Hospital a few doors away-the noise at night and parking is already bad in that area.
ReplyDeletePlus the owners own the pit known as Lawrence House. If they cant take care of that, how can they be responsive to neighbors when they have a liquor license.
ReplyDeleteI live about a block away and probably would have frequented this establishment out of convenience (if their petition is successful) had I not known the info you provided about the owners. Thanks for doing the digging on this, UU. Will continue to patronize Michaels and the BOB for my nighttime fun.
ReplyDeleteThese owners are responsible for a huge number of gang customers in our neighborhood...screw 'em
ReplyDeleteLook at their history and the city should not award a liquor license to a business owner that has violated numerous city ordinances.
ReplyDeleteHow ironic. That use to be C4 Recovery Point. Substance abusers would always be smoking cigarettes & lingering around outside there.
ReplyDeleteJust another example of people's twisted priorities.
ReplyDeleteI live 2 blocks away and think it's a great idea to bring another business to the neighborhood. Loved Arnold's and will be glad to see the space occupied.
