So when did you start having conversations about purchasing the garage?
4:46
Sure.
4:47
Serious conversations began earlier this summer, May.
4:51
We were looking at purchasing another spot in the area on Brady Street.
4:55
And I've been in conversation with Leslie, the old owner, for a while.
5:00
I have an interest in Hyatt Garage, and I just checked in with her before I moved on to my other idea.
5:06
I wanted to make sure she had no interest in selling, and that one email led to where we're at today.
6:10
Yeah, what was that like to take over a bar as a senior and your brother, who I'm guessing just by this you were very close with, passes away relatively unexpectedly?
