Crossroads Bar aka L.D. CrossRoads Drinking Emporium

With Rascals bar also on Wisconsin Avenue, some customers jumped back and forth. When Appleton passed a smoking ban in bars, business began to decline- and while other businesses quickly recovered, Crossroads struggled. The bar was closed for several weeks in July-August 2006 and rumors where that a sale was in the offing; but the bar reopened around August 21, 2006. However, sometime in the spring of 2007 the bar closed for good.
