What is happening with the Architecture Café?
I know many members of the community are going to be disappointed that we have decided to close the Architecture Café.
Why is it closing?
Originally, the café was student-run. A number of years ago we became aware of some serious problems in the way it was being operated, so McGill joined with the students and started managing the café with the aim of making it financially sustainable. Now, two years later, we know those efforts have not produced the result we’d hoped for and are unlikely to ever produce a financially viable operation. The café is still losing money and the University cannot afford to subsidize anyone’s lunch. Read on…
OH HEY LOOK! The Architecture cafe is closing
Spreading throughout campus this week – The architecture cafe is closed for good, according to everyone’s favourite administrator, Morton Meldelson:
Watch out for the scary tower crane
An opening is being made in the exterior wall of the 15th floor mechanical room and the crane will be used to bring debris out. The opening will be used over the next few months to bring large equipment into the building.
I guess the university feels like it needs to warn us of our potentially horrifying impending crane-related death, but not the closing of our beloved cafe. Thanks, jerks.
