McFadden's Closed?

The Foodie Report blogs that McFadden's downtown is "shuttered", but no confirmation yet of its closing.
I walked by after work and it was indeed not open. Furniture was moved around. I wonder if it is closed to repair one of the front windows? Anyway, I took a bad photo and I'll be on the lookout for news . . .

I'll be bummed if they are closed - we liked watching soccer there.

Hmmm, thats interesting, they've been closed a few times over the last year for "repairs", make of that what you will.
It is a nice spot for watching sports.

Per cincinnati.com;

Downtown bar closed
THE ENQUIRER

DOWNTOWN - McFadden's Irish Pub in downtown Cincinnati has closed.

Its Web site has been taken down.

The casual Irish sports bar at 19 E. 7th St. was popular among 20-30 year olds and opened in March 2005.

It took over the space that had been Nick and Tony's after that restaurant closed.

I was just going to do an update!

Business Courier also has an article. And those Urban Ohio folks have a debate and a few stories here:

It appears something will reopen under new ownership.
