“It’s been a real cool time but we are moving on to other projects - it’s time!” Fischer posted.
The bar will keep its regular hours and menu until it closes. Fischer expressed appreciation for the community’s support of the UFO Factory and teased that there were new plans for the Trumbull Avenue building.
“You are likely to be pleased with the next evolution,” Fischer wrote. “More info coming soon.”
UFO Factory in Corktown is known for its music, movies, live music and diverse selection of hot dogs and grilled cheese sandwiches.
The bar was closed down for more than a year in 2017-18 after a nearby construction project nearly knocked down a wall and damaged the foundation.
