This was the original Seminole Heights blog with commentary about life in and around the urban neighborhood of Seminole Heights in Tampa, Florida. Musings about other topics as my mood permits. The blog is essentially inactive since I moved to Lutz. Go to The Official Unofficial Seminole Heights Blog - www.seminoleheightsblog.com for active content.

Restaurant moves closer to reality
According the City Council records, Greg Smith's plans for a restaurant and bar at 6401 Nebraska Avenue is moving along. After more than a year of work, he finally was able to get approval from City Council to rezone the land for his restaurant. Where is 6401 N. Nebraska? Drive north from Hillsborough until you see Rick Fifer's photo. His billboard sign is at the location. What kind of restaurant? Maybe Randy knows.
Oh boy is this good news!! I knew about it when Greg first attended an OSHNA meeting eons ago. There had not been any activity, so I thought it was a dead deal.
ReplyDeleteThe plan is for a sports bar...how cool is that???
Yipee for us!!
In addition, Greg owns the residential lot at the rear and will build himself a home there and live on-property. He's a great guy.
ReplyDeleteI'll be similar to Hooters or other "wing" houses.
He has OSHNA's support.
"I'll" should be "It'll". I'm not turning into a Hooters wing house any time soon. Sorry for the false hopes.
ReplyDeleteGrand news indeed. I hope this is a decent sports bar/pub type place. Maybe next year there will be a good place in SH to watch the Super Bowl.
