Maybe We Should Round Up the Usual Suspects

MAYBE WE SHOULD ROUND UP THE USUAL SUSPECTS Former Home of the Usual, 5519 Allen St. at T.C. Jester Blvd., Cottage Grove, HoustonWhat’s happened to the bar building by the Cottage Grove railroad tracks at 5519 Allen St. at the corner of T.C. Jester since lesbian bar The Usual shut down there in February? Perhaps a sale of the property and something new going in — but what? “Looks like someone bought the former home of The Usual,” reports a reader who drove by the site Friday and sent in this photo. “For sale sign is gone and there were workers in there today.” [Previously on Swamplot] Photo: Swamplot inbox

  • A friend of mine bought it. He’s planning on opening a new bar in September.

  • Hey ‘a friend of a friend’, any update on the bar?
    It looks like construction has stopped and I haven’t seen anything the past few weeks.
    thanks!
