Update on Sportsbook & Bar @ the XL Center

In all fairness, the rest of the development has been put on hold. Also, there have been issues with the proposed supermarket. From what I understand, parents were complaining because a supermarket was too close to a school. It’s too bad because this would’ve cut down on the food desert in that area.

That’s not my problem. I don’t care how or why there’s no development. End of the day? There’s no development.

There’s a saying that goes “don’t tell me about the labor pains. Just show me the baby”

Pratt Street has always been one of my favorite streets in Hartford. I used to spend time at No Fish Today, Lord Jim's and Vaughan's before the first two closed. I was there last November before a UConn Men's hockey game using the tables near Vaughan's. And I agree it was a good way to spend some time before a game. But I grew up in Hartford so I have no issues with spending time there.

I can’t believe you just said Lord Jim’s. I was throwing back beers there before I was 21 in like 2002. What a throw back. Always thought the 2nd floor bar was a cool one.
