There's always the ongoing battle between the bars and clubs that want to be open late night and the residents who don't want to deal with it

Never. I will admit that I was supportive of Golden at first (even if I thought the hire was strange) but I would never have gotten one of those ridiculous shirts.

You know how it is. Trendy night life spots come and go. The Grove/Cocowalk area was pretty popular in the early-mid 2000's but like anything else, it's popularity faded when new night life options were created. I know the Sandbar is still there (after a quick re-branding by the TV show "Bar...
