Alibi Bar & Place in downtown Salt Lake City to close after sale

What they're saying: "This is not easy news, and we have loved serving you, making memories with you, and being a part of what makes the Salt Lake City bar scene so special," the bar posted on Instagram.

The intrigue: The social media post said it would soon share "exciting news" about what's next for the space located in the historic New Grand Apartments building.

Between the lines: Alibi often hosted Vibras Del Lago, a popular pop-up for cumbia dancing.

• The Vibras Del Lago Instagram account said Friday it was postponing an upcoming event on April 3 and looking for a new venue.

Zoom out: Since opening, the people behind Alibi have launched two other bars — hi-fi listening bar The Green Room, which is located in the same building, and Central Ninth's Vietnamese pub The Pearl.

My thought bubble: I'll miss taking selfies in the bar's bathroom covered in bright red, floral wallpaper.

• At one point, an Instagram account featured photos people took of themselves and their friends posing in front of the mirrors.
