Little Five Points’ Wrecking Bar eyed for brewpub, events space

Resident envisions a second — or is it third now? — life for historic Moreland Avenue property

For years, the Victor Kriegshaber House — the beautiful yet beat-up Moreland Avenue mansion sometimes referred to as “The Wrecking Bar” — has sat in disuse. That might change.

Inman Park resident and brewmaestro Bob Sandage — whose Final Gravity homebrewing group was profiled by CL Food Editor Besha Rodell in our Jan. 2009 beer issue — has plans for the property located just south of Little Five Points.

Should everything go according to plan, Sandage would like to see the building become a brewpub and events space — a move that could add some much-needed life to the moribund strip of Moreland Avenue between L5P and Reynoldstown.
