And yes, as noted in a comment below, the plan for a beer pub next to the beer distributor on Lefferts, has been foiled. Right now it appears they're simply building out the beverage store, which seems a bit silly since they had plenty of space. Anyone who knows the owner there want to inquire and see what the heck's happening?

Not Maple but Midwood.
The bar that was going to go into the Beer Distribution place (where the pawn shop was) is not going to happen. They didn't get the necessary liquor license. Sucks.
Was their application rejected?
Yes, Alex. They said the changes they would have had to make to secure the license would have been too expensive. The owner wanted to do something small and easy but more elaborate changes were needed.
Which pawn shop? I thought people were talking about the one in the Phat Albert building, but that seems to be alive and well...?
No, it's closed down. They just haven't removed the signs.
It's also not the Phat Albert building. It's a separate structure and address.
Seems a little shortsighted not to come up with the dough to renovate into a bar to satisfy liquor license requirements... but what do I know?
When is Jim's new spot slated to open? They etched a nice looking "504" on the door - would be great if the address became the name instead of DJ Oyster.
I don't buy that Liquor Authority line. Something's fishy in denmark. Speaking of fishy smells, I agree that DJ Oyster lacks class. Perhaps Mr. Mamary wants it to be pronounced DJ Erster? I hear he lives in Jersey now, so it's apropos. Actually, if you call it Erster then you could have boy and goil terlets as well.
As I posted previously, the name of the bar is not going to be DJ Oyster.
The liquor license was denied many, many months ago before the pawn shop came into existence. Because they were denied, they rented to the pawn shop.
