Milwaukee's favorite midget, Steve Vento, didn't last long with his recent bar Ripples on Water, 530 N. Water St. But the space is now rebuilt and, with a garage door front and new owners, opens as Lex on Water on Saturday, Aug. 7. Call them at (414) 628-1232.
In other Water Street news, Emmit's Irish Pub, from Chicago, will open in the former Stout Brothers space in fall.
