The building on Grand River and Griswold would be a nice spot
So would Bleu [[Former Tele-Arts) on Woodward. It's a small theatre to begin with... they could put a kitchen in the basement.
The building on Woodward and John R. Is a great fit, once was several clubs.
So looking at bedrocks portfolio..

I think 1550 woodward would be a cool choice.. i mean it's only a 1 story building for one commercial tenant.. but it's got the rooftop which during spring - fall would be a pretty awesome hangout
Also i think Bleu is still open.. although I've never been i don't really want to shut down one bar/club to open another one... i'd like to see woodward have multiple destinations for entertainment
ok just realized it's right next door to bleu.. that could be a nice little set-up.. pretty different crowds but nice to have some spots around one place then grow out from there
Opps... that's right Bleu opened back up on 2010... but boy talk about some bad reviews!!
^^^ Yeah a teen was shot during a melee there a few years back. I drove by there on night and saw young women running out-of-there-shoes to get out of there from some bar fight. Ugh...

Maybe Bakers could take over the Thai resturant on lower Woodward next to the First National Building. A club was once there back in 2006 during the Superbowl
The crowd there is not what I would call desirable. And it isn't thugs, its kids from outside of the city.
This news excites me! I need to stop by Bakers sometime soon. Sounds like a fabulous time.
Bangkok Crossing, to my knowledge, is still open. But I think you're referring to the space beyond their northern wall, the former KaCent Restaurant/Club, and I would agree that would be a great location.
Bangkok Crossing coyld be relocated and Bakers could take up both spaces
I never understand your logic, stasu. You complain about how hard it is for businesses to get started in the city, and then you want to uproot a thriving restaurant to make way for another? Relocating a business is almost as difficult as starting over. That old KaCent space is plenty big for Baker's. Heaven knows there's been a steady procession of clubs in that spot over the last decade.
Quite a change from the repeated lurches toward bankruptcy and closure and complaints about a lack of audience. I guess I just wonder if this really a "second" location or is it the first steps in a move. IIRC a main complaint was the current space was too small to get a crowd large enough to make any money.
And if complaints about how hard it was to get an audience at all were true, is competing against yourself a good plan?
Another great spot would be the spot in the David Scott building where Lacave was going to open. That would be bordering Grand Circus Park
Broderick Tower where Flaming Embers werr
Yep, my first thought. Bakers works because of where it is. You can't replicate that. Der Rathskeller would be a similar institution.Quite a change from the repeated lurches toward bankruptcy and closure and complaints about a lack of audience.
