Hangar 1 Vodka Distillery Is Closing Its Alameda Production Facility and Tasting Room | Eater SF

"I saw that Graduate Palo Alto is readying to open and will debut a sixth-floor rooftop spot called President’s Terrace and an all-day cafe named Lou & Herbert’s in December; President’s Terrace will restore the garden, install an outdoor fireplace, and offer cocktails, natural wines and “seasonal bites” including brunch with plans for weekend brunch and “rooftop yoga,” while Lou & Herbert’s will serve Manresa Bread pastries and breakfast items before transitioning into a spot for beer, wine, cocktails, and shareable bites. The hotel’s conversion was considered controversial because the former President Hotel had been a historic apartment building with 75 apartments before the city approved its conversion into a 100-room hotel in 2020." - Dianne de Guzman
