蜜柚直播

But the once popular dance hall with black walls and cowboy murals, that closed in 2012 after 23 years, has been erased.

Cubicles sit where the dance floor once was, neon signs have been replaced by cloud lighting and, instead of urban cowboys on a row of stools, certified public accountants roll around on modular office chairs.

Local accounting firm, HBL CPAs, recently moved into the renovated space at 5470 E. Broadway, near South Craycroft Road.

Many clients, who are longtime 蜜柚直播ans, have a story to tell about time spent at the Cactus Moon, said Jacquie Ivey, a partner with HBL.

鈥淪ome are still heartbroken,鈥� she said. 鈥淧eople have a lot of good memories of this place.鈥�

The remodel is an example of how landlords are getting creative about recruiting tenants into nontraditional spaces.

When HBL was looking to move from its office near Grant and Craycroft roads, Melissa Lal, a broker with landlord Larsen Baker brought the space to their attention.

鈥淪he said, 鈥業 have an off-the-wall idea,鈥欌�� said broker Buzz Isaacson, who represented HBL. 鈥淏ut when I walked in, I was like, 鈥楴o way.鈥欌��

A team from HBL had the same reaction.

鈥淚t looked like they just locked the door and left one night,鈥� Ivey said. 鈥淚t was hard to see how the dark bar would evolve into this 鈥� CPAs aren鈥檛 known for being creative.鈥�

Architect Jose Ceja, with Exa Architects and Annie Lewis, a designer and space planner, were enlisted and helped HBL visualize the space鈥檚 potential.

鈥淚t鈥檚 not just that it once was a bar, it had some weird angles,鈥� Ceja said. 鈥淲ith input from the client, we started playing with the design, like with Legos.鈥�

Some details of the $700,000 renovation were curious.

鈥淭he men鈥檚 bathroom was an interesting challenge,鈥� Lewis said. 鈥淚t had one stall and five urinals.鈥�

Working in tandem with the landlord, the design team was able to transform the 11,800-square-foot space into what HBL needed for its 42 employees and future growth. The firm was founded in 蜜柚直播 in the 1970s and partners did not want to end up in a high-rise or congested, nondescript building, Ivey said.

鈥淲e didn鈥檛 want to lose that we are a 蜜柚直播-based business,鈥� she said. 鈥淭his makes us feel like we鈥檙e still part of the local community.鈥�

Aside from great visibility, on the southwest corner of Broadway and Craycroft Road, the site offers easy access for clients and plentiful parking, Isaacson said.

At the east end of the Plaza at Williams Centre, HBL is also within walking distance of nearly a dozen restaurants for employees.

Redesign of office space is crucial to getting new companies to 蜜柚直播 or existing ones to expand, Isaacson said.

鈥淲e have a lot of firms that are already in 1980s space and don鈥檛 want to make a lateral move,鈥� he said. 鈥淭his space checked all of the boxes.鈥�

During a tour of the new space, with its clean employee kitchen and modern conference rooms, no trace of boots, buckles or rhinestones could be found.

Standing outside the men鈥檚 bathroom, the question begged to be asked.

Did you at least keep the 鈥渂athroom Polo?鈥�

Ivey shook her head, 鈥淣o.鈥�
