we drove past night ... it's all boarded up / closed... I don't think it ever opened. I wonder what happened.

they had an "event" there a couple weeks ago that I accidentally attended.  It's not open yet, but it could be operational if they wanted it to be (i.e. it looks like a bar inside)...not sure what the hold up is.

I went to The Sinclair this evening and had a terrible experience. I want more than anything for some more bars to open in this town, especially downtown, and everything about The Sinclair could work if the staff were not impossibly rude. Simply stated, these people are in the wrong business. The space was inviting, the music great, and selection of beer and wine was adequate. At my suggestion several of my friends met there this evening. We ordered six bottles of wine and tipped well but the staff were simply rude from the moment we arrived and it only progressed with time to the point it was almost comical. Regretfully, I will never go back to this place and it had such promise. I even liked the monogrammed matchbooks. So if you go make sure to wear your skinny jeans because these people would rather not have your money unless you fit their target demographic.
