In all seriousness, the parking lot North of ACM needs to be mixed use, multilevel garage at base with residential above. Then this would give adjacent parking for the conversion of the floors above at 101 E Sheridan to residential...
Hey now, I don't want to do that! My name isn't E. Scrooge. :)
I'm just hoping that something gets developed down the line -- within 5 years, 10 years (well, hopefully sooner than that)... you know. Plenty of time to make new arrangements for parking.

Sorry, this just makes me chuckle (moved here from Wisconsin last year).

Californians who've moved here think our winters put us in the Arctic zone. :rolleyes:

Agreed!
btw, that ABT 12, although freaking delicious, is ridiculously overpriced.
Re: TapWerks Ale House-Bricktown
I like appetizers at bars rather than looking a meal. Nice things about apptz is everyone can order one and share. Meals not so much, and everyone enjoys their favorite adult beverage while yapping their heads off. Have not been in a pub in awhile and typing this is stirring up old longings.

Incidentally, they did finish the new exterior re-paint:

And yes, the font now matches the sign:

That photo is from Finch Creative Group, who designed the new logo & branding
Here's a better look at the new logo:

(This is from their website, tapwerks.com.)
One more thing... that wooly creature in the logo is a "Griffalo" - part griffin, part buffalo (oh yeah!)
TapWerks was conducting a naming contest for this critter here:

Don't think they've picked a winner yet.

Re: TapWerks Ale House-Bricktown
Just an FYI, their menu has also been reworked and food there has greatly improved recently (I wouldn't say it was ever bad; it just wasn't anything special). I highly recommend the black bean soup, loaded (can't remember their term for "loaded"), and with filet tips added. It's top-shelf. Folks sometimes take TapWerks for granted. It is long-running, locally-owned, has food late, tries to stay open for downtown diners even in the case of things like snow and ice, and works hard to cater to LOCALS in addition to visitors. And also, beer.
Re: TapWerks Ale House-Bricktown
Everything about the look connotes class. Not phony class. Real class.
I'm looking forward to visiting the place sometime.
Well done, TapWerks.
(and a tip o' the hat to Finch Creative Group)
