The end of an era in Unalaska

On Sunday, residents of Unalaska bid farewell to one of the most storied drinking establishments in modern Alaskan history. It used to be called the Elbow Room, a notorious bar that was synonymous with the high-rolling, often violent culture of Bering Sea crab fishing in the late 70s and early 80s. It was renamed Latitudes in its final years, and closed once and for all this weekend.
