First things first... I don't ever think that the clubs on the beach would close down move to downtown Miami. What seems the trend is that the beach club owners would try to open a location in downtown with a different style from the clubs on the beach. It is very difficult to second guess the possibility but as you can see the recent move of Opium opening Livingroom downtown. It has been quite a success to a certain degree. Definitely, can not compare to Space since it was the first most successful club in downtown. Another positive reason why the downtown area is so attractive is that it Miami is offering the 24hr liquor license and also there is no noise restrictions. While the beach has restrictions on those policies. Besides the City of Miami dieing for some thing to help left that dead - downtown area at night. From what I have heard the city wants the downtown to be alive open 24 hrs a day like the most major cities. For example you have NYC, Chicago anytime of the night and find several resturants and clubs open all night. But, in the recent 2 years for those who have traveled through the Miami Downtown area (going to Space) may have noticed they have built a new building and allot of activity has been generated since the inception of Space. Bottom line the downtown will/is a prime area for clubs to open... Its just a matter of how they will market the club. :coo:
