Choose the logo for Fishtown Social
Fishtown's first wine bar is on track for a November opening.
Vanessa Wong has the concept nailed down for her forthcoming wine bar called Fishtown Social (1525 Frankford Ave., up the street from La Colombe),
What she needs is a logo.
She enlisted the services of Andrew Shearer and Russell Edling of Narrator Design, who came up with two finalists.
In a novel twist, Wong is putting up the decision to a public vote and she's "selling" the votes for $5 on her GoFundMe page.
She also will be out front of the building (Frankford Avenue at Oxford Street) at the Frankford Avenue Night Market (Thursday, Oct. 1 ) and people can vote for free, win prizes, and get more info about what she says will be "just a cozy local spot with a unique selection of wine and beer and some small plates/snacks."
(I'm comparing it to Tria.)
She hopes to open by Thanksgiving.
P.S. A block away, at Frankford and Marlborough, heavy-duty finishing work is proceeding on Heffe, the taco stand from chef Peter McAndrews, with a projected opening in early October.
