Mods, please don't move this to the Heights forum where all of my Washington Corridor posts were moved to. This is NOT in the Heights and it's not part of the Heights area. It's the Washington Corridor area, an area that as suggested and advocated for previously needs its own forum because there is lots of development happening here, much spurred by the Sawyer Yards and Buffalo Heights developments. Thanks.

5002 Washington Ave takes up the entire 5000 block of Washington Ave in Houston.

Country-themed bar Daisy Dukes was located here but closed in the spring. Before Daisy Dukes, this was Rebel Honky Tonk ( or Rebel's Honky Tonk).


Last month, Clé Group (Clé , Spire , Bisou ) announced a new bar or club is coming. The club is called Heart. 

Heart is opening this fall at 5002 Washington Ave. I don't know the extent of the renovations inside.



Maybe with So Clutch Group taking over the Washington Corridor nightlife scene, the Clé Group wants a cut of the Washington Corridor money too.

A new multi-level building  would benefit this property more than the existing one. I don't know how this will be transformed to fit the Cle Group brand. We shall see soon.

  • The title was changed to 5002 Washington Ave.

The Heart Club is for lease. I wonder if the owners got tired of all the crime here and kicked them out. Once a guy who got kicked out came back with an AR-15 to shoot the place up. Luckily he said he was coming on social media so the cops intercepted him before he could commit a mass murder. There have been murders committed outside the club too.

Tonight is Heart's last day of business. The night club announced its closure on Instagram this week.

Located at 5002 Washington Ave, Heart is one of several nightlife concepts from Houston's Clé Group. It's also the hospitality group's latest venture to close.

In addition to Heart's closure, Cle Group has closed the following businesses in recent months:
 

  • Bisou - 4444 Westheimer Rd, Suite A-120
  • Post Oak Lodge - 4747 San Felipe St


I think Cle Group may have sold or leased (or may be partnering with other operators) their Midtown and Downtown venues too. I'm not fully certain.

Cle Group advertises their original venue Clé at 2301 Main St, Suite 400. However, alcohol permits and state permits filed in recent months show a club name The Encore at the address. It doesn't appear The Encore is affiliated with Cle Group. I

As for Spire, the downtown night club at 1720 Main St closed late last year, I think, for renovations.  Their Instagram lists the club as closed, but for months stated it was closed for renovations. Permits show a new operator for a club named Dome.



Below are photos from inside Heart. The photos are from the night club's Instagram.
