  • San Antonio rooftop bar Paramour teases plans to change its name to Apothecary.

Well, it’s just pretentious enough.

Downtown-area rooftop bar Paramour took to Instagram late Thursday to debut a new logo and potential new name — Apothecary — for the swanky space.

“Exciting new things are coming,” the post reads. “We need your help, swipe over and in the comments let us know which logo is your favorite!”

The post includes two versions of a neon adaptation of the phrase “Apothecary at the Phipps.” It also features the hashtag, “#onestopshop,” though there’s no explanation as to what that entails.

High-profile attorney Martin Phipps, a name partner at Phipps Deacon and Purnell and owner of Paramour, appeared in news stories earlier this year after he was arrested for allegedly harassing his then-wife to the point that she fled the country in fear for her life.

Paramour itself has also been in the news, as Texas Public Radio has attempted to investigate claims that a young woman who killed a San Antonio cyclist drank there on the night in question. At the time, 24-year-old Samantha Castillo had been working as a paralegal and assistant to Phipps.
