Did somebody want a Kick Ass Cigar Lounge in Fremont

Construction is now in full swing at the Ohlone Cigar Lounge.  The have the entire place framed up and were working on Saturday to get things done quicker.  I dropped by to a very dusty worksite today.  They were working on the external dry wall today and if you've ever been somewhere where sheetrock work is going on you know there is a lot of dust in the air.  

The first picture is from the front of the store which will be the humidors and retail space.  Along the wall at the left is going to be the humidors, there is a bathroom in the corner and the cash wrap (display case and where the cash register will sit) will be back against the far wall.  You can just make out the doorway to the lounge at the back by the light.  Sorry for the quality but given how much dust was there this is pretty good


Retail Space

The second picture is from the lounge.  When I looked at the plans and we were playing with how the furniture was going to be arranged I was worried that the lounge is going to feel a little small.  I was wrong.  The lounge is going to be large and very comfortable to sit and enjoy a cigar in.  
From back of lounge
Along the left wall will be a 60" TV for sporting events.  Back wall will have member lockers and a bar with a smaller TV above it.  The opening to the lounge can be seen a little easier here along the far right wall.    Lots of space for comfortable chairs to relax in.

Now that construction is in full swing the other 10,352,412 things we have to get done to open become real!

This week I had to fly from San Diego to Montreal for a 1 day meeting.  Long flight but I got to enjoy some of the finer offerings in Montreal.  What a cool city.  This may or may not be a Monte Cristo Number 2 from Cuba.  That is a fantastic Scotch from Scotland I'm drinking.
