==Closure & legacy==
The bar closed for good on [[November 9]], [[2003]]. Matt Heckemeyer, who whose wife had divorced his wife him since buying the bar, said his inability was at a loss to return pinpoint the exact reason why the bar went under, however many in the Navy Community, who saw Trader Jon's to in its former glory heyday, suspected it had "a lot to do with the changing environment" of a Navy that frowned upon excessive drinking.<ref name="partyends">"Last call at historic downtown watering hole."

The [[Trader Jon's building]] was sold for $562,500<ref>[http://www.escpa.org/details.asp?qAcctNum=154347200 Property appraiser's record]</ref> to [[Sarah Brown|Sarah]] and [[Walter Brown]], who planned to expand their women's boutique [[Sarah's]] into the space — months before [[Hurricane Ivan]] destroyed the store's main location in the adjacent [[Phenix Building]] — but these plans were later scrapped.
