Fixture Pizza has been in the works for a while and, according to co-owner Josh Taylor, it will open in early-to-mid April in the former Boom / The Room space, 625 S. 2nd St.

Taylor, who is opening the pizza restaurant and bar with his brother, Jake, says they hoped to open four or five months ago, but encountered a series of obstacles.

"It's an old building, and among other things, it set us back," says Taylor. "But we are moving forward and confident we will open in April."

Fixture Pizza, which is the Taylor brothers' first venture, will specialize in what Taylor calls "Milwaukee-style pizza."

"Chicago has their style of pizza, and we will have deep dish on the menu, but Fixture's specialty will be 'Milwaukee-style,' which has a thin, crackery crust and is square cut," he says.
