Fishtown's Boisterous Boozer to Melee Maelstrom of 2012

Fishtown's Boisterous Boozer to Melee Maelstrom of 2012

The Green Tree Tavern, once a historical hot mess in Philadelphia's Fishtown, now graces the National Register of 1980. In 2012, the place that once told tall tales now rings with the sadistic symphony of blows.

The Green Tree Tavern, a former Fishtown legend, landed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1980. In 2012, the spot where the Green Tree Tavern once spun its yarns, now hollers with the grisly giggles of clashing fists instead. The same floorboards that absorbed the tears (and perhaps more) of spilled whiskey, now creak beneath the weight of these modern-day warriors.
