Could it again one day? I’d settle for just one one passing through.
I think this is a great idea. As a former Brady St. area resident and current Brewer’s Hill resident, a cafe that’s both family friendly during the day and serves the night crowd will get good business. That building is not attractive currently and the plans for the remodel look great. Go for it!
As the current co-owner of this property with my wife Usha, I am very enthused about these plans. We have owned this property for about 20 years and my wife Usha and daughter Ami ran the famous “Dancing Ganesha” Restaurant for 10 of those years which added culture and aesthetics to our community and was the watering hole for city’s intellectuals and famous visitors like Ravi Shanker among many others. I am excited that the building will return to its archetypal Italian roots and be relevant to present matrix. With these improvement, the History will merge with the Destiny of this wonderful Jewel in Milwaukee’s crown.

Good, well thought out plan. I would refer him to the owners of Transfer Pizzeria regarding saving the Peacock sign . they have done it twice in their new space on 1st and Mitchell. best of luck to Sal.
Very cool idea and I hope it works. The west end was a bit sleepy, though that was okay for some of us homeowners who lived nearby! The 24 diner may have a loud crowd after bar close but I think it’s good for the neighborhood overall.
Mr. Horne, thanks for the in depth coverage. Please keep us posted on progress.
