The space is currently set up as a bar and music venue. It formerly housed the Third Street Venue, which closed in January, Carli Dixon, who owns the property along with her husband Hamilton Dixon, told this news outlet this morning. The space is now called Brightside Event Space, a party room that is available for rent to parties of 50 or less, Dixon said.
Securing a liquor license will offer flexibility, Carli Dixon said. And renovations are underway to expand occupancy in the building, which includes two rooms, one 4,900 square feet and another 1,900 square feet.
"We will have all the pieces in place to offer a prospective tenant," Dixon said. Although they're looking for partners, the Dixons also haven't ruled out doing a project themselves, she said.
“We see it as a really interesting space. We think it will turn into something,” Dixon said.
