El Diablo Drama Strikes Again: Notice to Vacate Posted

The City of Denver has posted a notice to vacate on the building at First Avenue and Broadway that houses El Diablo and Sketch restaurants, the Denver Post reported this morning. The notice of unsafe structure and order to vacate prohibits occupancy of the building that is home to both restaurants as well as the offices of Jesse Morreale, who owns both restaurants as well as the building.

Five months ago, a similar notice was posted and after a couple of weeks of closure, Morreale received an extension of time to complete repairs. According to Andrea Burns, a spokeswoman for Denver Community Planning and Development, the required repairs were not completed.
