Workers were pictured standing high up on a crane working on the sign on the front of the brick building.
The sign reads, “Morgan Wallen’s This Bar.”
The entrance of the building was entirely blocked off.

A giant black banner hung on top of the construction barriers.
The sign announced the opening of the country-themed watering hole for summer 2024 but didn’t specify a date.
His website for This Bar confirmed the establishment’s plans to open over Memorial Day weekend.
TAKE IT DOWN!
In light of Morgan’s recent arrest, the Nashville Council rejected the plans for a 20-foot-tall sign to advertise the establishment.
The council flagged concern regarding his past use of a racial slur and pending felony charges since an April incident, according to The Tennessean.
“I don’t want to see a billboard up with the name of a person who’s throwing chairs off of balconies and who is saying racial slurs,” council member Delishia Porterfield stated.
On April 7, Morgan was detained by officers and arrested for throwing a chair off the roof of Chief’s Bar in Nashville.
The arrest report claimed the chair landed three feet from where cops were standing on the street below the six-story building.
Morgan was charged with three counts of reckless endangerment and disorderly conduct.
He was booked after midnight on a $15,250 bail and was released hours later.
CAUSING TROUBLE
It’s not the first occasion the country music star has caused unrest in public.
Dating back to 2016, the singer was charged with a DUI, but the case was later dismissed.
On May 23, 2020, Morgan was asked to leave Kid Rock’s Big Ass Honky Tonk Rock N’ Roll Steakhouse due to him kicking glass items and engaging in verbal fights with pedestrians.

After Morgan apologized for his actions the charges were dropped.
The country music star sparked controversy partying in Alabama at the height of the pandemic lockdown.
On February 2, 2021, Morgan was caught on camera using a racial slur.
As a result, his music was pulled from radio stations across the country and suspended by his record label, Big Loud.
Morgan posted a public apology video on his social media on February 10, 2020.
