MILFORD, MA — The owner of a Milford sports bar destroyed in a February fire is seeking permission from the town to rebuild, according to an application filed with the Planning Board. A fire broke out at the Tradesman bar, 284 West. St., on Feb. 13. The bar was reduced to a pile of rubble, but the owners pledged to return. "So the rest of the bars around here better not get too excited, 'cause I ain't going nowhere!" the owners said in a Facebook post the day of the fire. According to plans, the new building would be a different shape, but about the same size. The new building would also feature a deck alongside the building. The owners have held several fundraisers in recent months, including a golf tournament and selling Tradesman merchandise online. The proposal for the new bar will go before the Planning Board at a meeting set for Tuesday.
