Claim: Building that houses Odessa Cafe and Bar on Avenue A has been sold

[Michael Sean Edwards]

Shawn Chittle reports that a source at Odessa claims the building housing the "old" Odessa at 117 Avenue A has been sold for $3.7 million. There are two years left on the Odessa lease, but the hammer may fall sooner than that. Odessa owners are retired and a buyout is possible.

That doesn't sound like good news, enjoy Odessa while you can.

Odessa is one of my favorite bars, in part because it's cheap, empty, and often playing weird, loud alt-rock. If new ownership ups the rent, the bar is going to have to change dramatically to stay afloat.
