Haha... It's amazingly funny now how seriously people took themselves in 80's videos.

[ShadowStrings]

What is the targeted completion date for this?

[Pete]

They haven't even started work yet but should soon.

Once started, it's probably only about a 60 day build-out.

I am salivating for this one. I talked to the owners a couple weeks ago at brunch and they basically said "it'll be ready when it's ready." not sure if they were being laissez fare or if they were really planning to blow this one out of the water. But I'm expecting the latter. They explained the concept a little more and said it was going to celebrate 50's & 60's technology and feature old propaganda film, cartoons, and TV commercials on antique tubes.

It's such a great name and concept, and considering their success with The Pump, I can't imagine they won't nail it.

I've said this in other threads, but it's really fun to see these urban districts transform into, well, vibrant urban districts with a lot of character. 23rd is really coming together piece-by-piece.

Part of the delay has been some lease issues regarding access through the back service door.

There is an internal corridor but the slope has created ADA issues that needed to be resolved.

Just one of those things that you deal with with an *old* building that has been closed for a long time and now needing to meet modern standards.

This place is going to be so damned cool

[Urbanized]

Can't wait!

[sooner88]

They sent out an update today that their building permit has been submitted and that they will start their buildout in the next few weeks.

[John Knight]

Construction has begun.

[ShadowStrings]

Any update on this?

[Pete]

Yes, they are moving forward.

Delays due to having to completely re-do the concrete floors and some other issues.

Construction has now started in earnest.

[ShadowStrings]

Is this getting close yet?

[Urbanized]

Yes. Oct/Nov opening likely. They are busting their tails, doing a lot of the work themselves.

[John Knight]

Installing beer lines and the new walk-in that will hold 20 kegs.

[Pete]

This is their logo...

[king183]

This is their logo...

Which, if read correctly, is "Veekya Club."

[John Knight]

Here are some more from their FB page.

[AP]

That logo is top notch.

[Jake]

What a cool theme.

[Pete]

They are doing some cool things with their interior design.

I smell another hit for Ian.

[Urbanized]

^^^^^^^^
And Hailey!

[bradh]

As a huge fan of "The Americans" I'm excited for this!
