A popular bar in Albany's Pine Hills neighborhood will soon be under new ownership. But before it switches hands, there was one final farewell.
On Saturday, a farewell party was held for Michael and Pat Byron. They've owned the tavern since 1971.
The event brought together dozens of people who've been part of the WT's legacy. Many employees and customers were also sharing their memories they've had over the years.
The Byrons say the decision to sell the business wasn't easy, but it was time.
“I had a wonderful ride," Michael Byron said. "It was a wonderful 47 years and it went by so quickly.”
The Bryons says they look forward to spending more time with family and traveling to Ireland.
