  1. Just curious how they are getting past parking requirements. Unless they are counting all of the residential street parking. Love that this is coming though.

    1. It’s using an existing structure and it’s within the Red Line Transit Oriented Development Zoning Overlay. Since it’s an existing structure and was already zoned for use as a brewery and for alcohol sales, they won’t need to file for a new variance. The TOD Zoning Overlay also explicitly discourages surface parking lots and commercial surface parking lots are outright prohibited, so that would work in their favor had they needed to file.

    2. Matt W – The RedLine had around 1,000,000 trips recorded in 2025. That’s not nothing. You don’t have to like it, or support it, but don’t just sling the same lies of old.

    3. I use it. A lot. Including trips to visit the Garfield Brewery.

      Over 1 million riders a year on each BRT line so far is pretty far from “no one,” so you should probably keep that opinion to yourself.

  2. I really hope they revive some of the very tasty Garfield Park Brewery beers. IMO, the beers at these larger breweries aren’t as complex and unique.

    1. No amount of evidence to the contrary will ever get ya’ll to shut up about buses and bike lanes. You’d be a lot less miserable if you rode a bike once in a while
