Building Silk City’s Beer Garden

Posted by Foobooz on June 4th, 2009

We were excited when we first heard Mark Bee was going to be building a beer garden next to Silk City. But as the months passed we had to ask ourselves, how much work is really needed to convert a parking lot into a beer garden? The video below shows this wasn’t just slapping some picnic tables down behind a fence and frankly, we don’t think its gotten the attention it deserves.

 

 

Update: The Frankford Gazette chronicled the Beer Garden’s metal work being manufactured in Frankford.

    This is awesome. I’ve heard great things about the garden, but haven’t been there yet. How long was the construction process?
