yeah, was confirmed with some of those who run the council for the area. I"m curious what the plan of attack for the space is. its not a bad location, but needs to be opened up a bit inside. mini kitchen, decent bar, outdoor patio, etc etc.....

Its becoming a hotel. http://onmilwaukee.com/bars/articles/hotelfoster.htmlPlans are already in the works to remodel the space and re-open as Hotel Foster, a 1920's hotel lobby-themed bar.

I like one of the comments - about tearing down all the 1900's buildings and recreating them Disney style

a hotel huh? hmmmm.....def off the radar. however, with the hospital being there, along with many of the UWM students living in the area, it could end up being a gold mine location. I'm sure the business owners (bars/restaurants) are happy with this one.

correction for everyone in case you read this from your phone and didn't read the article......this is not becoming a hotel. it is becoming a high-end hotel-themed lounge.

Wonder how long Milwaukee will continue to plagiarize NYC establishments?

the issue is milwaukee owners always try to duplicate what works in other cities here, and 9 times out of 10, it fails. why? oh, the fuck if I know....maybe because what works in NY or Miami or LA, works there because of the weather, cost of living, social needs/expectations etc....and when its brought here, it fails or doesn't meet the required sales line to pay off the wonderful remodel and operation costs.
parking, affordability, friendly prompt service, and entertainment. thats what milwaukee likes, and thats what typically succeeds (sans clubs, as those flip every 6 to 8 months).

I typically forget alot of places even exist. Most businesses need to stay up to date on is their social networking. Send me a text once a week that includes what you have lined up for the weekend or what your food specials are. Promote promote promote!
