The Vine Tavern & Eatery, a popular hangout for ASU students and sports fans since 1986, will permanently close its Apache Boulevard location Saturday, July 23. The Irish pub is referring to the closure as a ‘‘relocation’’ – last month MXSW broke the news The Vine was taking over the former Angry Crab space on the northwest corner of Ray and 38th Street in Ahwatukee. It also has a 20-year-old location on the southeast corner of Rural and Elliot in south Tempe that will continue to operate.

Sad to see it go.
From a redevelopment standpoint, I haven't seen anything, and there's no transfer of ownership of the property on public records yet. The lot is only about 3/4 acre, so hard to say what they would do there. But could be interesting if they could assemble it with the Chevron and/or Someburros.
