1. Who cares? Its on Broad Street. And its not West of the Blvd.

2. I have the same feeling about the Greyhound station. Not in my backyard.

3. Unless Richard’s has moved to another location, it is closed (and the building demolished)

4. I heard they moved to Scott’s Addition.

5. I am not hip on it. That is for sure. I don’t care where it goes, I don’t want to see it opened period. I could think of better things real estate in Richmond could be used for.

6. “I can think of better places real estate in richmond can be used for”

   what? empty crack houses making it a trash dump and an eye sore for our city to breed crime? Any business going in an empty building is good business. People in some parts of this city need to wake up, we are not privilege enough to sit back and pick and choose what is going to open. the heart of the fan, maybe, the west end, probably, but not at Boulevard and Broad, the way it is now we are lucky anything wants to be there. Any non-vacant building that brings people to the area at night is a good thing.

7. Only if the semi-nudes are males or animals.
   Parading half-dressed women for the paid entertainment of men is so last century.

8. The white-trash owner of Velvet has those two Hummers with the train horns. If his new business buys more, is there anything citizens can do to get the horns taken out by the City of Richmond? Actually, forget more–can a complaint lead to removal or just a slap-on-the-wrist fine?

9. Keep the horn — is their anything the city can do about the advertising on those hummers??

10. … and Velvet got raided yesty by locals and Feds.

11. I agree with Jason’s comment above. Any viable business is better than a vacant building… and come on people, you are living in a city. Celebrate diversity for once.

12. I don’t see any “diversity” to “celebrate.” Just sleeze and crime. And the old Julian’s isn’t at Blvd. and Broad–Jason evidently doesn’t know the neighborhood. People are living their lives on Grace street just behind it, old folks are living in the retirement tower next door, kids are coming to the Children’s Museum across the street. Great place for porn!

13. The club’s application for a permit was denied.
