Amherst residents may lose the 150 year old town hall as the 300 block Church Street building is slated for demolition this spring to clear room for a Brew Kettle bar patio. The Strongsville brewer plans to move into the former Church Street Bar and Grille and buy the old town hall next door, targeting a June or July reopening. J Taylor Salon currently occupies the town hall site.
