Lease purchase is what I heard but don't bet your proceeds on it. I was told that the whole block was slated to become a rail substation in 2 years. We'll see. Stay Safe Young Man.

That aside I was informed that ex-Wave mama Michelle will be the mama at Green Tee starting March 1st. Not sure if it will be a soft opening but she's excited about her new venture. I have no intel as to what GT staff will be staying on or carrying over from Wave / Kalihi Station. Be safe this week gents.

They are having a Grand Opening on Feb 1st. The bar is very small to begin with so I don't know how the remodeling went as far as making more space, etc.

Sounds like a standard now days. Girls always get recycled from other bars and when it gets slow they return to where they came from. LOL.

No most have more than 15 employees (registered with LC) with W2 forms. Some bars hanged owners in 2022 and 23. They say businesses need to have opened before 2022. $10 K is not enough money for all the losses all businesses lost. I never use Dillingham anymore too much construction material on roads like nails. I know 2 people that got nails in tires on Dillingham.

So why before 3? Is there anyone even in the bar yet besides the bartender? Since he said he would only go to a Korean bar to look for action.

Looks like she is trying to pump life back into Camelot with more / new girls.

What's the old Islander?

Old Islander is near Diners on but back side of lot. Heard Bishop estate also owns the land and plans to redevelop the entire block. Many small business days are numbered.
