Ok so, granted I'm recently getting back into the stroke of things. But this side of Tampa Bay is really thin on good options. Most halls seem to cater to the bar crowd.
Eh, and I, like many of you on the board crave an old time room. Today I was walking around my town during lunch; it is downtown Plant City FL. There are quite a few empty buildings. Many of them are two story from the teens.
It would be GREAT to see someone open a hall in one of these second story spots and do it right. Old tables in good condition, and pool...perhaps some coffee, but nothing else.
I know Bakers in downtown Tampa closed, but even that place had the bad neighborhood surrounding it. Plant City is not a bad area at all...or as they say down here attawl. For the most part, they preserve things in this historic district. If they could have just moved some tables from the old Bakers to Plant City...alas, who knows where all that stuff went.
Anyhoo, I don't know if anyone would consider opening a hall her, but it would be a killer spot. And if done right, it would be a destination for sure.
I think.
