Straight Shooters in Fall River temporarily closes until it can open at new home

A popular pool hall in Fall River will be temporarily closing their doors until they can open at their new location.

In a social media post, Straight Shooters stated that they are moving from 288 Plymouth Avenue to The Crescent Mill located on Front Street, on the corner of Plymouth Ave and Pleasent Street.

“We are BEYOND excited for what the future holds for us on our multilevel, air conditioned, completely renovated and remodeled building! That being said, Straight Shooters will be closed until the new location’s construction is completed.”

Ownership was appreciative of those who have helped the business along the way.

“THANK YOU to everyone who has supported Straight Shooters Family Billiards for 31+ years in business at our current location. Whether you were a tournament player, an everyday shooter, a once-a-week player, or a weekend ball banger, we have been happy to provide a place for you all since 1991, and we will continue to do so at the new location!
THANK YOU to everyone who has worked for us over our course at this location, you all left your mark in one way or another and created lifelong memories.”

According to an October 2021 Fall River Zoning Board of Appeals meeting, Bravo Development LLC is turning the Borden Mill into an indoor storage facility after being granted a waiving of zoning requirements in a medical district pending a review of the property when work is completed.

The 190,000-square-foot facility will be part of a self-storage chain and will be staffed from 9:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m.

Businesses have gradually been rolling out of the mill.

Lazer Gate began packing up from the mill at the end of March and it is unclear when the business will open back up elsewhere.

Inside The Park Batting Cages moved to New Bedford and opened there in July.

AMP Academy is on Quequechan Street.

Spectrum Tile & Carpet has moved to William S. Canning Blvd.
