Dang. Knox-Henderson has lost another good one<\/a>. After 10 years, the neighborhood bar, High Fives, has announced its closing its doors, another victim (or just \u201cresult\u201d) of the changing scene along Henderson Avenue. <\/p>\n

The restaurant and bar is part of This and That Hospitality, which also owns Double D\u2019s, Hendy\u2019s on Henderson, Tiny Victories<\/a> and Burger Schmurger. Over the years, it has become not only a popular neighborhood spot but also a rallying point for Texas Tech Red Raider alumni.<\/p>\n

\u201cTo all our neighbors, the Red Raider faithful, and everyone who has made High Fives their home\u2014we are saying goodbye by raising our hands high for one last High Five,\u201d says This and That partner, Phil Schanbaum. <\/p>\n

One Last High Five (or Maybe a Few More)<\/p>\n

\t\t\t\t\t\t\tWill you step up to support Dallas Observer this year?\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tAt the Dallas Observer, we\u2019re small and scrappy \u2014 and we make the most of every dollar from our supporters. Right now, we\u2019re $15,000 away from reaching our December 31 goal of $30,000. If you\u2019ve ever learned something new, stayed informed, or felt more connected because of the Dallas Observer, now\u2019s the time to give back.\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n

High Fives will remain open for the remainder of December (and a wee bit of January, keep reading) from 8 p.m. to 2 a.m. on Thursdays and Fridays, and from 2 p.m. to 2 a.m. on Saturdays. <\/p>\n

The Texas Tech Red Raider<\/strong> hangout will celebrate its final day with the Jan. 1 playoff bowl game; kick off is at 11 a.m., and doors will open at 10 a.m. If the team advances, the bar will remain open for subsequent games. <\/p>\n

\u201cThe hope is to see the Red Raiders through to the national championship,\u201d reads a press release. <\/p>\n

The Future of Henderson Avenue<\/p>\n

Major projects are underway along Henderson Avenue (and the Knox end as well, to the west, as we wrote about in this piece about Cafe Madrid<\/a>). The block west of High Fives (between Glencoe Street and McMillian Avenue) is being transformed by New York-based Arcadia Realty Trust into a massive 161,000-square-foot mixed-use development, expected to be completed sometime next year. The quarter-mile strip will be a walkable space with chef-driven restaurants, retail and office space.<\/p>\n

A press release notes that \u201cmanagement is supportive of the future for the district\u201d as it paves the way for the evolution of the entertainment district. <\/p>\n

We asked about the future of High Fives and Boogies, and we will update if we hear back. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Elm St. Saloon in Deep Ellum will close at the end of the month.
