Last week Township co-owner Mark “Max” Brumbach sold his stake in the Logan Square restaurant-slash-venue to a trio of new owners: Logan Arcade beer buyer Steveo Segel, Logan Arcade general manager Megann Lesnick, and Naked Raygun bassist Fritz Doreza, who also works at Logan Square bar and venue Quenchers Saloon. “When [Brumbach] was thinking he needed to leave I approached Steveo,” says Township co-owner Tamiz Haiderali. He says the changeover became official Friday, though it will take at least a few weeks for the bureaucratic paperwork to wrap up.
Segel and Haiderali had been friends long before Haiderali approached Segel with the idea to become partners—they are, in Haiderali’s words, members of a “mutual admiration society.” “I always thought he would be a great person to work with,” Segel says. “I was always kind of hoping one day this day would come. When it did I jumped at the chance.”
