It is kinda sad to see some of these local hangouts disappear. I had never heard of Brighton Beer Garden up until seeing BeeLine's pics, but I'm sure that it's rough to lose these neighborhood hangouts.

WTF. A porte cochere gone awry?

I think this was once a wonderful shingled Victorian (remnant of the original on the left) that was horribly mutilated.
 
I might've asked this but is Brighton House of Pizza moving? And are they slated for demolition?
