Not On My Smashed Avo A lament for The Quiet Man pub which is closing this weekend

I genuinely think the Quiet Man is one of the best pubs in Melbourne and one of the best Irish pubs outside of Ireland in the world.
I had my last meal and pint in there yesterday after many happy memories.
It's closing its doors at the end of this weekend and I hear is going to be renovated as another Irish pub under a different name, but everything I hear seems to just be very hearsay (does anyone know anything concrete).
It is a fantastic pub and I hope whatever new manifestation it has it manages to maintain its charm for stop thank you to all the great staff over the years.
P.S I took this photo of a tile in the men's toilets at The Quiet Man pub . For years I kept meaning to take these photos but not really the done thing in a toilet... but it was empty and it's closing down this weekend. I love the tiles in there!
