Sam's topic about hotels and OTC got me thinking about this. Two cities that I know well for SC fun (Detroit and Toronto) both have these amazing clusters of clubs encircling their respective airports. Lots of hotels nearby as well. This happy circumstance does not apply to other cities that I know well (Edmonton. Calgary, and Vancouver).
Does my observation about airports and fun clubs fit other noted US cities - Tampa, Houston, Miami, Dallas, Atlanta; or are the special clubs sprinkled everywhere in those cities?


The two cities that I've lived in, Los Angeles and Seattle, had a poor choice of clubs NEAREST the airport. At the time, in L.A. there was a club (now closed), named the Century Lounge. It was right on Century Blvd. which is the main drag into the airport. Century Blvd. is a classy street with high-rise office buildings and name hotels. But the Century Lounge was a run-down dive of a place. I went there just once when I was near the airport, and never went in a gain. I think Lopaw will disagree with me, though.
Here in Seattle, the nearest club to the airport is the Deja Vu, in Tukwila. It advertises itself as "Deja Vu-Airport." So, it's obviously trying to capitalize on airport traffic. The club itself was given a thorough interior remodeling last year. So it looks nice on the inside only, but it's in a sleazy area. Two ill-maintained convenience stores and a vacant formerly full service gas station are next door or close by. Police cars cruise the area all the time. The club suffers from a lack of dancer talent and a lack of customers. If the neighboring few buildings were remodeled with the gentle touch of a bulldozer, the Tukwila Vu might be a good place to go.
