![]() Approved in recent years have been two housing developments, two shopping plazas, a gas station and a storage facility, and under discussion are two light industrial buildings, another housing development and a corporate headquarters. The city invested $12 million in improving Mission from the Los Angeles County line east to Benson Avenue. Montclair officials say the conditions have reasonable safeguards, but the new use stops short of what they’d prefer. Or maybe “sweet innocence.” That covers up Deja Vu’s name and its famous motto: “1000s of Beautiful Girls and 3 Ugly Ones.” The exterior was untouched on Thursday, although the pylon sign had been painted white. ![]() The pylon sign, which is taller and larger than currently allowed, can remain for five years - change happens slowly on this corner - and its color must match the building. (Please paint it bunny gray! Suddenly it will be the county’s most adorable building!)Ī few of the colors seem vaguely racy, like a holdover from the Deja Vu days: “chantilly lace,” “marilyn’s dress,” “wedding veil,” “sweet innocence.” I love the names, all from Benjamin Moore, of the 63 colors: “November rain,” “iceberg,” “woodland snow,” “gray owl” and “bunny gray” among them. (In that sense, I guess the building could be Deja Vu all over again, but not as we knew it.) You can find the full list on my blog.Īlso, there is a document titled Approved Color Palette that lays out precisely which shades are allowed. In what seems to be a valiant effort by the county to close any loopholes, the business must choose from a list of nine approved names, among them Deja Vu Comedy and Sports Bar and Deja Vu Bar and Night Club. That resulted in closing the by-the-hour motel and the addition of landscaping and a more muted paint scheme to replace the neon pink, as well as giving the strip club a decade of continued existence. Officials there could only look on in frustration as they tried to clean up the portions of Mission that are in city limits.Īfter litigation that began circa 1988, the county negotiated a legal agreement with Deja Vu in 2002. The property is in unincorporated San Bernardino County, out of the jurisdiction of adjacent Montclair. The windowless building on the northwest corner of Mission Boulevard and Central Avenue has long been considered an eyesore and embarrassment. This may end decades of contention over the strip club’s activities and exterior. The exterior, now neon pink, will be painted white or gray. Under a legal settlement with San Bernardino County, the club, closed since November 2012, will become a bar. The showgirls won’t be back and the bright pink paint will be stripped off. ![]() Stick to other bars and clubs if you are looking for any customer service what so ever.The former Deja Vu strip club outside Montclair will become less showy inside and out. Needless to say we will not be going there ever again. I tried to place a complaint but management was "busy." Besides the comic the night was horrible. We had already finished our food by the time we got those drink (which happened to be 4/8 correct). The tables next to us did not seem very happy either. It took over 35 minutes to just get 1 drink each. We watched her take not only our order but the 3 other tables around us as well. ![]() Her breath behind her crooked smile was horrendous and because of the loud music she had to yell to take our order. It was even more appalling than the ladies on the high dance bar we had to see later in the night. Not only was the rudest person we have ever encountered but every time she bend over to take our order you could see right up her too short tight dress. My husband, our friends and I were having a fantastic evening until our waitress.
