What's the solution?
The sheer amount of clubs hasn't really changed significantly over the past while ... in other words the demand is there.
We could attempt to spread it out some more but I think having a large concentration downtown is important ... maybe not as much as we have now but we need to give them alternatives.
The docks area might be a good interim choice but we'll eventually see the exact same problems that were seeing in the current club district when increased residential pressure comes to that area.
In your opinion what's the current problem? Lack of enforcement and bad management? Or the sheer number of clubs makes it impossible to create safety.
Don't get me wrong I agree with your comment that night life is a lot more then just clubbing ... a lot of that exists further south with restaurants and theaters so I'm not sure how much of that we can expect in this area. Moreover you have to admit that particularly in the later hours clubs are a really big part of night life ... past 12am that is.
