If you missed out on the cool old Miller Brewing-built place on Bartlett, the turreted Miller tied house in Cudahy or this Bay View bar, don't fret, because now you can be the proud owner of Falcon Bowl.

The Riverwest classic corner tap, with a great bar and six bowling lanes – built in 1882 – is for sale, with an asking price of $249,000.

The tavern has long been home to Nest 725 of the Polish Falcons of America, a fraternal order organized in 1887.

The Nest, which owns the building, is the last surviving Falcons group in the state.

The place has more than 12,000 square feet, including a three-bedroom apartment upstairs, which boasts a pretty cool (nonworking) fireplace.

The bar itself has a capacity of 230 and there's a catering kitchen, too.

The six lanes were certified 108 years ago, making them among the oldest in America.

Of course, there's also that cool hall with a stage and backstage area.

The most recent assessment by the city valued the building and land at $230,700.

You can see the full listing here. There are nearly 100 images there, too.

If you're interested, don't hesitate because in this market, the place might've sold in the time it took me to post this.
