"Opened in 2003 at 2149 S. Halsted Street, Skylark was sold to a group of employees who have already taken over operations after owner Bob McHale put the bar up for sale hoping a buyer would preserve the space rather than allow redevelopment; veteran bartender Brian Page is among the new owners and said he didn’t want to see the neighborhood bar stop fostering community or fall into the hands of inexperienced owners who would squander what workers have built." - Ashok Selvam
