that space is so dysfunctional. that and the fact that the operators of mayorga and nori sucked.
$160,000 per year? That's insane. Could a popular bar even pull in enough to cover rent, utilities, and other overhead in that space?
For over 3K in space, there's got to be less than 1K that's usable. It's a truly awkward space. While I think it worked best as a bar/cafe when Mayorga was there, it's much less valuable than contiguous space. The rent should reflect that.
