Divino replacing Palermo Villa
Divino Wine and Dine is the name of the new restaurant opening in the old Palermo Villa space, 2315 N. Murray Ave., said Dean Cannestra in an email.
He said the new restaurant – the name of which is a double meaning in Italian ("divine" and "of wine") – will open soon. A visit this morning showed that work on the space is continuing and the old Palermo Villa signage still hangs out front.
But Cannestra has launched a Facebook page for the new restaurant. Stay tuned for more info as it becomes available.

Former Color Truth frontman Steinbach finds the road back

More, than anything, he says, he's got a new lease on a musical life.
Let's put the "front" back in Front Street
Published May 16, 2013
For a variety of reasons, I've been thinking about Front Street, which now seems so ironically named, fronting as it does onto nothing and serving as the ultimate definition of a Milwaukee "backstreet." In my mind, I see something much different that can be seen on the block today.

First look: The revamped Horse & Plow

The bowling alleys are long gone, but the loss has never affected the popularity of The Horse & Plow pub in The American Club at Kohler.
