  • Destroyed by fire during the winter of 2008.
  • On the night this was destroyed, I dreamed that the library I work at was on fire, the fourth floor and some of the third floor, and I was trying to evacuate people... I woke up and discovered that the fourth and third floors of the Forest Arms, which was only half a block away from where I was staying, had burned in the night. Luckily everyone was able to get out alive. Peoples Records had to relocate, though, and Amsterdam Espresso was utterly destroyed, which is sad.
