The Highland Strip is about to get a new music savvy tenant with an affinity for a good drink. The Bluff, a music venue/restaurant/bar combo will open at 535 S. Highland St. by mid-January.
Nickle Smith, Hudson Chadwick and Austin Wallace, owners of The Bluff, signed a lease with Loeb Properties Inc. for the tenant bay this past April. Since that time, they have transformed the empty shell into a concert hall complete with a mezzanine level, outdoor patio and 100 total linear feet of bar.
