Ball Square bowling?

Does anybody know whats up with the little bowling place in Ball Square?  I looked in the window, and everything is still set up, but is it ever open?

I remember that discussion -- in fact, I was briefly part of it. I still think the city would have done better to supervise a license transfer to better ownership than to shut down a live music venue.

A little more Googling finds that the Willow was at 699 Broadway, which is now home to ERA Norton Group Realty, co-owner of the Somerville News. Anyway, this is the opposite side of Boston Ave. from the bowling alley.

Norton Realty is located where the Willow was? That's gotta be worth something on the Unintentional Comedy Scale.
