Green Door Tavern

Directions

The house

The Green Door occupies an 1872 frame building that survived because it went up just after the Fire — one of the last wooden commercial structures in the city. It became a tavern in 1921 and a speakeasy when it had to. Downstairs, The Drifter still uses the original hidden room: cocktails, a Ouija-card menu some nights, reports of figures who are not on the floor chart. Upstairs is burgers and a tilted floor. You can eat without going downstairs. You should go downstairs anyway.

A tavern plate upstairs. Then find the bookcase. The Drifter is the reason the house still has a secret. Order a cocktail as if the raid already happened.
