"I was relieved to learn that this decades-old Mid-City dive bar will remain open at its current address (910 N Carrollton Avenue) for at least another year—possibly two; it had been preparing to shut down at the end of the month after popular neighboring Blue Oak BBQ purchased the property and, according to managing partner Kathy Anderson, offered “non-viable” lease terms, which prompted controversy within the neighborhood and among loyal Parkview patrons. The bar’s announcement credited a “spirit of compromise on both sides of the table” for the surprise change of plans." - Clair Lorell
