The brick facades and marquee designs will be restored and the buildings will be used as co-working space. The family has likened the space to an old building in New York City. They have purchased 104 Main, 108 Main, 110 Main and 112 Main for redevelopment. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They own 2910 Crawford, which is basically a halfway house that's really a blight on the Baldwin Park area...I don't know why they don't let go of it, but there is a black mercedes that shows up every afternoon for...collection? I don't know. I wish the news would investigate. https://www.reddit.com/r/houston/comments/3qush8/midtown_lodge/ http://www.bedbugregistry.com/location/TX/77004-2729/Houston/2910 Crawford St But that's off topic.

H-Town Man Posted October 6, 2016 Share Posted October 6, 2016 Beautiful buildings. Feels more New Orleans to me than New York. Don't look like they need much reno from the outside. Are they keeping the ground floors as retail, I wonder? That end of Main Street needs a jolt. Downtown retail in general does, really. I hope the residential and hotel boom provides it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The ground-floor retail spaces are currently all occupied by a bail bondsman, Barringer (bar), Lilly and Bllom (bar; said to be soft-opening tomorrow) and Gossip (nightclub).

Tumbleweed_Tx Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 A bar backed by industry bigwigs is ready to sink its fangs into Houston's downtown party scene. Cottonmouth is the name of the bar that Mike Raymond, co-owner of Reserve 101 whiskey bar, is opening with partners bartender Michael Neff and designer Greg Swanson. On Friday Raymond announced both the name and location of the bar: 108 Main in the Brewester Building, once home to Barringer Bar, which closed in December after almost a three-year run. https://www.chron.com/entertainment/restaurants-bars/article/Cottonmouth-bar-coming-to-downtown-Houston-12619918.php 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IntheKnowHouston Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 (edited) Main & Co. retail update (100-114 Main St): A new nightlife concept is taking over the first floor of the Brewster Building at 108 Main St (part of Main & Co.) The proprietor of drive-thru daiquiri shop Candy Shack recently leased the first floor unit previously occupied by cocktail bars Cottonmouth Club and Barringer's. Named Finish Your Champagne, this could be a bar. If it is a bar concept, it's possible this could be a champagne, wine, or craft cocktail bar based on the name. In addition to Candy Shack, the owner also operates upscale dining concept Juliet near the Galleria area.

editor Posted May 5, 2022 Share Posted May 5, 2022 I walked by this yesterday. That end of the street can use a little help, so this is good. I went to the coffee shop next door, 3 Fibs. It's... OK. But like most coffee shops in Houston, it suffers from a lack of choice. It has the same seven items on its menu that every other coffee shop has. So why should I go there, instead of somewhere else? Harsh on Starbucks, but at least there's some variety. Perhaps Starbucks tries too hard to be everything to everyone, but catering to more than just the basics is how you bring people in the door. I like the vibe at 3 Fibs. But I probably won't go back, just because there's no reason to. There are five other places closer to me that I can get the exact same thing. I will definitely go back when/if it expands its hours. It does wine and charcuterie boards, which I like. But it's only open until 4pm. I'm not going to drink wine on my lunch break. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
