STRONG EVIDENCE evidence grade — master store (canonical CSV)

Combined Graph record U-01823 · provenance: canonical master store (CSV), record CTL-P-0379. Master record source: CTL seed 2026-10-16 — UNVERIFIED, verify before public citation.

The Honorary Chicago catalog profile post states "Honorary Art Bryan Way dedicated in 2016" for Arthur Bryan III, owner of the Red Head Piano Bar; the post's photo caption locates the sign on the southeast corner of Ontario and Dearborn, near his venue the Red Head Piano Bar at 16 W. Ontario (fetched in full 2026-10-17). Wave-13 update (2026-10-17): a genuine search of Chicago Councilmatic, conducted via live browser on 2026-10-17, found no enacted honorary designation record for this name — only tribute resolution R2016-357 (2016); no designation record. Chicago Legistar was unreachable that day (soft block: 'Invalid parameters!'), so the ordinance-record route remains open if a record surfaces there. Stamp remains STRONG EVIDENCE on the Honorary Chicago catalog basis.
