Chireal Jordan and Brian Galati, owners of Machine, confirmed via a spokesperson that the bar permanently closed in July after failing to negotiate their lease.
The eviction lawsuit claims that Machine owes $31,584 to their landlords, Newcastle Retail Management, with the next court date set for October 25.
Machine struggled to attract customers in recent months, which led to reduced hours, highlighting the challenges faced by bars on Division Street post-pandemic.
Jordan and Galati have plans to reopen Machine in a new location, indicating their resilience and desire to revive the bar's concept despite current setbacks.
