But that&#8217;s not all: two official notices (see above) appeared taped to the building. One is an order of abatement regarding building codes, the other is a notice that the building is in danger of foreclosure. According to the later document the owner of the building is behind on mortgage payments by over $100,000. Yikes!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As you may recall, Luna Park&#8217;s owners made some grumblings about labor costs before trying to <a href=\"http:\/\/sf.eater.com\/2015\/1\/6\/7504393\/luna-park-not-closing-plumpjack-pulls-out-san-francisco\">sell the restaurant to Gavin Newsom&#8217;s company.<\/a> That fell through, so they tried again with <a href=\"http:\/\/insidescoopsf.sfgate.com\/blog\/2015\/06\/01\/mission-beach-cafe-eyes-luna-park\/\">the owners of Mission Beach Cafe<\/a>. (Luna Park&#8217;s sister location in LA was sold to new owners years ago.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Now it&#8217;s not exactly clear what will happen. The <a href=\"http:\/\/www.abc.ca.gov\/datport\/LQSdata.asp?ID=102384780\">liquor license transfer<\/a> is still pending, but who knows what&#8217;s in store if the building winds up getting auctioned off by the bank.
