It's been reported that the Cliff Hangers Tavern on South Avenue at Lucius has closed.
That makes at least 12 south side businesses that have closed in the last year.
I remember years ago going to the Cactus Bar on South Avenue for a beer after bowling at Camelot. It was a nice, simple neighborhood bar. I left the area 20 years ago and I'm sure that the Cactus is gone by now.
