It's unfortunate this city hasn't created an actual well-planned, controllable, entertainment district. Perhaps that's something the new arena could do. 17th is pretty sparsely laid out.

That's precisely what Electric Ave was thought. About 15 bars on either side of the street and all night Friday and Saturday it was full on party mode. I was a piss warm hotdog guy during the heyday of Electric Ave, and I still maintain the block would have continued running if not for the 300 person brawl in Three Cheers that brought 20 cops in, and one officer lost his gun in the melee.
