If you haven’t been to Wit’s Inn in awhile. My understanding is the demographics have changed


There was an ownership change and your understanding is correct.

The neighborhood has been fed up with Witt’s inn for a bit and I’m sure this is just fuel to the fire.

Yeah. Wit's Inn and Red Door are probably a bit screwed now. It seems like overnight the demo of those places changed drastically. It feels like Neyows blowing up spread the demo to BBG/BWG which spread down to Carrollton to Wit's and Red Door.

Real strange how it seems to happen in the blink of an eye

Several months ago, someone I know went to Brocato's with his wife, daughter, and granddaughter on a Saturday night. As usual, Brocato's was crowded and a line formed on the sidewalk. My friend said that there was large crowds congregated on the street, neutral ground, and sidewalk outside Wits and the Red Door. People riding motorbikes and ATVs up and down the street, speeding and popping wheelies. And even people on horses riding down the sidewalk. His wife, daughter, and granddaughter became frightened and they left, as did many other patrons.

Back in the day the Italian Neighborhood Protective Committee from Brocato's and Venezia's would have put a stop to these thugs interfering with their business.

We used to live on Iberville and would walk over to Brocato’s for a treat, or Revel for a night cap; never any issue with Wit’s. A few months ago, on a whim, we decided to go have a couple cocktails at Revel after dinner. When the Uber dropped us off I was like WTF. Spilling out into the street, on the neutral ground. Definitely a different demographic.
