The fight to save the Double Door--which has helped buoy the careers of local acts such as Smashing Pumpkins, Liz Phair and Urge Overkill--takes a major step Thursday, with the owners scheduled to appear in Cook County Court for their lawsuit to extend the Wicker Park club's current lease.
Double Door operators Andy Barrett, Sean Mulroney and Joe Shanahan have filed suit, claiming they gave the building's landlords the required one-year notice to exercise an option to renew their current lease. The landlords, Harry and Brian Strauss, who have made plans to lease the space to a national retail chain, dispute the claim.
