On First Avenue this afternoon, the old Torero's sign was getting a makeover, a new Twist, if you will. Backstory here.
Looks charming, doesn't it? One of the owners, Rita Martin, promises that Twist's music will be softer than traffic noise. Furniture this weekend; opening by end of the month, she said.
But there's no liquor license yet, and a strong protest has been filed with the liquor board. Meantime, John Pehrson of the Belltown Community Council will chair a land-use subcommittee meeting Monday evening to try to sort this out. [That's the same John Pehrson who posted a comment about the Belltown Bravo! Aw@rds the other day.]
One Pacific Towers, 2000 First Ave., 6:30 PM. Be there!

Stay tuned for the next exciting adventure of...
