Admittedly, I don't know much about this Patriot Bar (for example, how long it's been open, or how long the tenants quoted here have been living above it), but I do know one thing: If I were thinking of moving in over a bar, I'd spend some time in the bar and outside the bar before I dropped my security deposit. I'd meet the bartenders and the owner, and I'd find out how late it was regularly open and how loud it is at, say, 2am.
