NEWPORT BEACH

Not wanting to fade from people’s memory, operators of the revived Cannery restaurant will open on a limited basis beginning Thursday.

The Newport landmark that was scheduled for demolition in favor of condominiums will reopen four days a week until the end of the year. The new hours will be Thursday through Saturday, 5 to 10 p.m. and Sunday, noon to 7 p.m.

The restaurant looked doomed last month with its closure but Newport resident Jack Croul bought the property from developers.

Longtime owner Bill Hamilton, whose main job is to get the restaurant up and running, said it was important to have customers back where they belong.
