Popular Westside bar remodeled, reopened

Monte’s on Bridge Street recently finished extensive renovations and again is open to the public. The bar remains popular among young urban professionals.

According to excerpts from the story:

It didn’t take long for loyal bar patrons to figure out that Monte’s, a popular Bridge Street NW watering hole, reopened after months of remodeling. The bar opened April 20 for a private party. By the next day — its official reopening — the line to get in snaked a block down the street.

A new bar was installed. Hip new lights hang from the ceiling and new windows cover the front of Monte’s. New bathrooms were added. And a massive cigarette smoke clearing system was installed.
