If you've seen a show in the courtyard, the building around it is now up for sale. The Jannus Landing Retail Building LLC listed the two-story property at 200 First Ave. N. for $11.5 million. WiLD 94.1 says it's been home to the venue since 1984, back when it was Jannus Landing.

The listing's "plans" would move Jannus Live to the roof as a rooftop bar and music venue with a projected capacity of 500 to 800. The standing-room courtyard holds up to 2,000 today, and the listing doesn't say what happens to the ground-level concert space.

It's not known whether any of this is already underway or merely possible. Megan Barnes, the registered agent who also manages Knight Global Entertainment, the venue's owner since 2010, and Knight's representatives didn't immediately return the Catalyst's calls.
