Madrid's Café Gijón May CLOSE within days! - 03/26/12 02:52 PM
Madrid's 125-year old Café Gijón, on the Paseo de Recoletos, may close within days according to this Madridiario article.
It seems there's a strong possibility the café famous for more than 100 years of gatherings, discussions, and debates by Madrid's elite authors and philosophers may close if they lose their terraza - which apparently is what drives the income for the café. Losing the terraza would be a death-blow to the café itself - although it's not clear why they may lose the terraza.
Saludos, MadridMan
