Losing A Place You Loved

Last night I went to my favorite bar in the world for it's final night in business. It's a small dive bar called "Sidestreet's Bar and Grill" or just Pappies (named after the owner's nickname). I use to live less than 5 minutes from it and I have a whole set of friends that I've met there. All the bartenders know me, take care of me, and pour heavy for me. I would say it's less than 500 square feet and is lit up by christmas lights most of the night. Really cheap prices on drafts and liquor made it a great place to go with only a little cash in your pocket. It has one of those great jukeboxes that are connected to the net that has some great music on it. Karaoke Thursday, Friday, Saturday nights. I've had great times at that place and met some of the best people in the world. It was my second home when I was working my last kitchen job and I often traveled 25 minutes from my new place just to drink there.

I loved that place and now it's closed.

Question: Did you have a place in your life that you really loved visiting that shut down?

I'm talking about bars, restaurants, places of work, parks, ect. A childhood burger joint you went to with your parents every Sunday afternoon or a college hangout that you lived at during your senior year there. Somewhere you visited and loved going too.
