?????rev80 said:They (Town of Newmarket) were not responsible for the demise of Lookers. The onyl person responsible responsible was the previous owner who completely mismanaged the venue from start to finish. He had a goldmine in his possession with no idea as to how to mine it. He should have sold it to me when he had the chance.
What a shame.
On a positive note the church has done wonders with the facility.
They were not allowed to advertise. They weren't allowed to have dancers during the lunch hour. The reason they closed was that they were bylawed to death.
And putting a church there is no coincidence. That location was one of the few (or only) locations that met the criteria of not being near schools or churches. Now, voila, there is a church there meaning there are no locations left that comply with the zoning.
I admit that the place was poorly run but that was not the reason for its demise. It looks to me like you were part of the posse that hounded it down.
