Couple of recent closures to let you know about, one that's more permanent than the other. First up: Mo's, the bar at 1037 Broadway, has gone dark after a two-year-plus run.

"It's been a long run and something new is always on the horizon," reads Mo's Facebook page. "Change is good and we want to thank all those that have made this small/quaint little neighborhood bar a little home away from home.We will miss seeing all our wonderful patrons. Keep in touch and we will keep you posted on new developments."

The Rex Lounge, meanwhile, previously the White House Lounge and the Foxhole before that, recently closed for renovations and will possibly re-open in the spring. The lounge opened in 2008 among the many condo complexes near Coors Field.
