Ninth Ward signage is now up on the new building at 180 Second Ave. (H/T Choresh Wald!)
As previously reported, the New Orleans–themed bar closed here after service on Feb. 14, 2016, with plans to return following a gut renovation of the building between 11th Street and 12th Street.
That timeline — initially expected to be about 18 months — stretched into nearly a decade amid construction delays, landlord issues and the pandemic.
In July 2024, the owners were back before Community Board 3 seeking a new liquor license for the address as part of their long-awaited return.
Now, with the signage in place, it's one of the clearest signs yet that the Ninth Ward is getting closer to reopening here.
Good news for those who've been waiting a decade for that next drink here.
