But the good news is that the Midway, just south of St. C, will reopen in late June with the same name but under different management.
The bar has been owned by current owner Albert Auclair and his wife for about 30 years and by Auclair's father before him.
Haven't got time right now to crack open the Lovells to find out how long it has been around but I think it's over 50 years.
Much longer than 50. One of the 2 cinemas on the block (one is not the Club Soda) was the Midway; the other was the Crystal, I think. They had been there since the 40s or earlier.
