The Bureaucratic End of the Bourbon Street Strip Club

Detroit strip clubs
"While the city cites public safety, and the protection of women as reasons for the closure, strip club workers understand these actions not only as an assault on their jobs, but also on their place as bearers of culture in a city that markets its history so aggressively. They see themselves being erased from the city’s landscape. The new Bourbon Street would capitalize on its salty past, all the while clearing away the workers who created that culture in the first place."

I stopped reading when I found out they were talking about New Orleans and not the strip club in Phoenix.

Except for the clubs outside the quarter. They are ok to slightly above average. And there is a swinger club, Collette, two blocks from Canel that we have had lots of fun at for the last several Mardi Gras.
