About this tag

This old Fourth Street building spent years as the Whirlaway Tavern, named for the 1941 Triple Crown winner nicknamed “Mr. Longtail.” Its recent restoration kept a lot of the building’s older character instead of sanding everything flat, including brick, glass block, timber, and recreated ghost signs from earlier lives as a grocery and bank. The new LongTail name keeps one foot in the horse-racing past while the building now houses startup and event space.
