Reader noticed new location serving liquor

| October 18, 2013 6:00 AM

I walk every morning and noticed at the new Old Town Coffee House just completed at the corner of Evelyn and Central Drive, the windows display several notices indicating that a liquor license is being requested. Since it has not yet opened, it seems that this may have been in the original business plan. As it will be situated adjacent to a City soccer field and just across from the big Paul Lauzier Baseball and Soccer fields, this seems to be an odd location. However The Paul Lauzier Field draws many kids tournaments to this location so this could be an attraction for the parents for if they find themselves: cold, hot, wet, or bored, they could wile away the time at the bar and then drive the children home after the games. This could also be a precedent for locating other liquor locations near parks and schools for the parents convenience.
