It’s not about visitors. It’s about the real estate in that area. Is very historic and very central but because the area is so party oriented it can’t be properly monetized by these bland, rich parasites.
They wanna push out the riff raff and make it all clean an inoffensive for property investors.
It’s past serving it’s purpose. It drew lots of people and filled government and real estate coffers when the city was down, but now it’s a net drag because the people dropping €6M on an apartment don’t want the common riff raff (anyone able to spend less than €800/night on a hotel room) from disturbing their peace and smelling like skunk all the time.
(Okay, there are technically only a couple places in the city on the market for €6M, but with prices quickly approaching €10000/m2 all but the rich and snobby are getting shoved out)
Have they considered that if they take away the red light district the rich fuckheads might not want to visit as much?
The rich fuck heads will pay enormous sums for the real estate once it is sterilized.
As I said, it’s a prime location. Comparable to Manhattan in NYC.
