Fishtown Neighborhood Association discusses David Grasso's proposed music venue

Last night, the Fishtown Neighborhood Association had a meeting with developer David Grasso about the 2055 Richmond St. warehouse that he wants to convert into a concert venue. Grasso has already met with LiveNation, as we Icepacked several times in July, and announced that the club woukln't host DJ nights to assuage the fears of those aren't looking for another Delaware Ave. Grasso, District 1 Councilman Frank DiCicco and representatives from the Philadelphia City Planning Commission and the Central Delaware Advocacy Group were in attendance and, according to anonymous FNA-er, called in the results of Tuesday night's vote: 57 opposed and 38 in favor. That can't be good. Stay tuned.
