Day care is the new black

Word on the street is that the 1300 Park Location (formerly Tonic Bar/Lounge) - and previously supposed to be a “Boutique Bistro” - is now slated to become a child day care center. Gotta give the owners credit - you need to cater to what your potential customers want!

Previous updates after the jump..

Below is a current photo of the old Tonic Bar location at 1300 Park. As you’ll see in the previous update a couple months ago (after the jump), the building owners noted a “Boutique Bistro” as one of the “amenities” of this building.

This “Space available for rent” sign leads me to believe either that they just wanted a boutique bistro to come there - or the original tenant said “no way.”

What do you think the deal is?

13th and Park Update

Here the latest for the old Tonic location at 13th and Park.

Construction is progressing, and they now have a giant banner reading 1300ParkAve.com draped on the side of the building. If you peruse the brief website, you’ll see floor plans, a description and an area map.

Listed as an amenity is the “Boutique Bistro” which will occupy the ground floor. What do you think they mean by Boutique? Expensive? Unique? Tasty?

See previous updates, and what Tonic looked like below…

9/3/2008 Update:

Work is finally progressing on the old Tonic. Anyone hear what the new name will be?

5/21/2007 Update:

Not sure when or if this closing is “official”, but it’s been overheard that they are converting to a high end Italian eatery (tapas style like Lola’s) in conjunction with the owners of Frankie and Johnnie’s. This is great news for the neighbors! They may have a well used 8 billion watt sound system for sale on eBay soon.

5/4/2007 Update:

Word on the street is that Tonic is now closed. Apparently the owners want to convert the building to condos eventually.
