Urban Stillhouse to undergo a transformation

After six years as a paying tenant, Urban Stillhouse owner Meredith Koko has purchased the property at 2232 5th Avenue S. And there’s no time like the present: The upscale restaurant and distillery, with its rustic, wood, brick and leather ski lodge interior, is getting a major makeover.

Koko paid $8 million April 13 for the 16,000-square-foot building in the Warehouse Arts District.

Ultraswimmer to attempt 24-hour Gulf Coast swim

Jessica Kieras will enter the Gulf of Mexico from Pass-a-Grille Beach on the morning of April 24 to swim for more than 24 hours. The Oregon-based ultraswimmer will head north along Florida’s Gulf Coast toward Honeymoon Island State Park, although her final destination will depend on how far she is able to travel during the swim.

Kieras said the open-ended nature of the effort (not having a destination, only a time limit) is intentional.
