Water Tower Sports Pub Hits the Market

The Water Tower Sports Pub in Lexington is up for sale at $329,000, offering a 4,732-square-foot space at the corner of M-25 and Huron Bay Boulevard. Open since ’13, the pub is known locally for its pizzas and 24-tap beer system. The sale includes the business and equipment, but not the liquor license or inventory. The building received a new roof four year ago, and the pub remains open while searching for a buyer, leaving its future in the town uncertain.

A U.S. District Court has set key deadlines in the civil lawsuit over Joshua Conant’s death outside Port Huron’s Roche Bar over two years ago. The schedule requires witness and evidence lists by April, expert witness filings by May and June, and completion of fact and expert discovery by July and September. Mediation for a potential settlement begins mid-September, with motions on expert testimony or summary judgment due by October. Conant’s death, caused by restraint-related cardiac arrest, led to the Joshua Conant Ordinance requiring bar security training.
