The former City Squire tavern and restaurant in Schenectady is not just merely dead, it's really most sincerely dead, as the coroner of Munchkin Land might put it.

Demolition workers tore down the longtime business this week to make room for the construction of a new two-story building that will house an Irish-style spot called the City Squire Ale House under new ownership.
