Gold Bar
During the COVID-19 pandemic, when a 6 foot social distancing rule was mandated, the bar took over a larger space within the building to allow people to socialize safely. Having utilized this space as a live content streaming studio and for several commercial video shoots while everything was shut down, CROWN recycled the sets and props that their art department had built for these videos into spacious vignette-style lounge seating areas for the bar. While the 6-foot rule was in effect, we referred to this area as the “Crown Social Distancing Club”. In 2022, due to the SLU building being sold and demolished, Gold Bar moved to Seattle’s entertainment district, Capitol Hill.
Gold Bar was an immediate success: profitable from year one and acheiving $250,000 months by 2022.
