I don't know the debate specifically about Pete's Apizza but this is from the Tenley listserve earlier this year:<br /><br />"RE: [tenleytown] Re: OLD Dancing Crab? <br /><br /><br />What are the rules these days for transferring liquor licenses? Was there ever a neighborhood/ANC agreement with the former holders (I seem to recall LOTS of problems with the original Dancing Crab upstairs bar when I was commissioner and in the few years after I left office and I don’t recall whether the neighbors ever resolved the issues with a consent agreement). If it is a nice Italian restaurant, that’s one thing. If it’s a bar that serves pizza and has a band, that’s quite another thing!"<br /><br />It is quite likely the Tenley NIMBYs opposed this too-- that is what they do oppose things such as housing directly above the metro station or streetcars that will improve mobility for people living in this corridor.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22305958.post-56427118063351663512010-06-16T09:09:25.172-04:002010-06-16T09:09:25.172-04:00I live one block away from the new Fessenden Stree...I live one block away from the new Fessenden Street location and I've been following the restaurant's progress closely. I haven't heard of anyone opposing this business. What or who is the previous poster referring to? For example, have there been any negative posts on any listservs? If so, I haven't seen them.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22305958.post-52711642708515071692010-06-15T14:29:42.332-04:002010-06-15T14:29:42.332-04:00A cool place to eat in Tenley??
