Heave-ho! The distinctive \u2014 and heavy \u2014 Phog Lounge mosaic tile bar top was removed from its longtime location on University Avenue West on Sunday, Jan. 5, 2025, and carried by volunteers to the bar’s new location on Erie Street East.<\/span> Photo by Julie Kotsis<\/span> \/Windsor Star<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/header>\n

Changes are ahead for the small red bar on University Avenue West in downtown Windsor.<\/p>\n

Phog Lounge\u2019s 10-foot mosaic bar made a dramatic exit on Sunday as a crew of about two dozen hauled the heavy slab 1.7 kilometres to its new Erie Street home \u2014 closing a chapter for the longtime bar and music venue.<\/span><\/p>\n

Though Phog Lounge marked its final day on Jan. 2 with a 21st anniversary send-off, the venue\u2019s owner told the Star the downtown building\u2019s story isn\u2019t over quite yet.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n
