The owner is a piece of shit.
He’s also forced the bar Far West to close, and then closed the place High Dive that replaced it after just a few months.

Not going to say anything about the owner of the building because I know nothing. However Far West closed because the owners moved to New Orleans. And High Dive closed because the building owner lost the liquor license. I've been to both places often enough to get that info from both of them before they closed.

The property owner controlled the liquor license, and put into place draconian restrictions about what the bars could and couldn’t do (especially about using the patio) that it was impossible for anyone to be successful there. And my understanding was he didn’t “lose” the license, he just didn’t want to go through the process of renewing it for them.

Yeah I believe it. He does seem kind of awful.

So you are saying they didn't force Far West out (because they moved to New Orleans, not got kicked out) and you infact don't know what you are talking about?
Theres enough issues at room & works you don't have to make things up lol.
The patio? You mean the entire indoor space that they were free to use (and did use)? Or the little outdoor space that they were also allowed to use?
