“We have the kind of vibrancy<br />
downtown in the evening that big<br />
cities like Vancouver and Montreal<br />
have. That’s because there are<br />
things to do downtown.”<br />
Terry Scadden,<br />
executive director of The Partnership<br />
he can disclose. “Congress Beer House will be opening at 215<br />
Second Avenue South, across from O’Shea’s Irish Pub. Basically<br />
right next door to it, there will be another New Orleans-style<br />
restaurant opening up,” says Scadden.<br />
A Google search of Congress Beer House reveals the downtown<br />
establishment will offer a menu showcasing local ingredients as well<br />
as having over 30 local beers on tap.<br />
“I’ve had confidential conversations with several people who<br />
are looking for restaurant/lounge opportunities in the downtown. I<br />
know that there are lots of people who are certainly looking to open<br />
restaurants in downtown Saskatoon. Space is at a premium; there’s<br />
no doubt about it. Without somebody building some new space, I<br />
don’t know that there’s any restaurant space that would be coming up<br />
available. There’s very little retail space as well. We only have a 1.5<br />
per cent vacancy rate for retail space in downtown.”<br />
