In my last post, I was looking into a strange email which seemed to mention Tony Podesta owning a "coffee place": https://voat.co/v/pizzagate/1560548
I now believe that coffee shop exists, and I think I found it: Art Blu Cafe https://sli.mg/185B9X
Reasons:
- Name - spelling of Cafe is not local italian spelling (Caffe), contains the word art, as Tony Podesta is noted for his art collection (we know him for his perverse art, but the way he's written about is as "art collector" -- https://archive.fo/Mw2Yx))
- Website - note the international signage: https://archive.fo/S9jq9
- Website Pictures - Just 8 pictures on the website, and why is one this? https://sli.mg/lO2bzy - file name is clienti3 (clienti means clients)
- Period of Activity - Take a look at the guestbook: https://archive.fo/bc3ao, active until June of 2015
- Coinciding Events: Tony Podesta filed for divorce in 2014, and discussed the fate of his Venice property https://wikileaks.org/podesta-emails/emailid/46159
- Email - in this email, https://archive.fo/Mta8z (mention of kids, James Alefantis in the sign-off), you can see he mentions driving specifically to San Marco, if you look at the location of this place (https://www.google.com/maps/place/art+blu+caff%C3%A8/@45.432628,12.3302394,20z)))), it's in San Marco
- Surroundings 1 - there is a really strange "Gallery" nearby: http://www.fiorellagallery.com/ (flash takes time to load, and then it is repulsive)
- "Gallery" - more on the Gallery https://archive.fo/uooLL https://sli.mg/VC3SeQ
- Surroundings 2 - and then there's this: https://sli.mg/tObedO (The Pentagram Soc - Coop: an unclaimed business with no website)

Tony Podesta's apartment is 18 minutes walking from this coffee shop, and 10 minutes from the "Rialto" water bus stop.
I am not sure whether it would be considered illegal doxxing if I put the address here, but you can find it in this PDF:

I found this using Google:
"venezia" "tony podesta" apartment
. Using the address I found convenient maps in another PDF in DCLeaks:http://dcleaks.com/emails/mail/html/HHS/00001557_files/Podesta%20Venice%20Trip%20Maps.pdf

BTW In this "2013 Venice Columbus Day Weekend" there was no visit planned to a coffee shop, so IMO Podesta might not own one at all.

If you google the street name and house number together with
Podesta
, you will be guided to a record in this telephone directory:http://www.elenchideltelefono.it/
If you click then on the "Telefono" hyperlink you will see 3 other users (Altri Utenti) of that address. As far as I can see nothing special.
