When I was on the their Fire Dept., a long time ago, they vowed never to annex that area.

Many year's ago, it was called Rosa's Cantina, and I think there may have been some problems then.<br /><br />However, the bar that got shut down was A Place for Friends. The address was 2105 North Sherman.

(not sure of the street, it's neighbors are a strip mall and the railroad tracks.) That bar seemed to have a lot more problems.Danhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16211149561616238625noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3450026683608056510.post-4602522959640632212010-07-10T11:30:01.698-05:002010-07-10T11:30:01.698-05:00I think it's a combination of a changing neigh...I think it's a combination of a changing neighborhood (another bar in the vicinity was shut down because of repeated problems) and expanded traffic from outside the neighborhood (the north side Madison Metro transfer station is right next door on Huxley Street). It seems to go in cycles.
