    In regards to the Tower Entertainment District overlay, the map doesn’t make sense south of Olive Avenue. It proposes to extend well south of Olive along Fulton and Van Ness to include the north side of Belmont. There are no venues along that stretch of Belmont except Marlos (which isn’t included). The long closed building at Belmont and Broadway (that was a restaurant or night club) was such a poor neighbor that the City basically declared that it could never be used as a venue back in the 1990s. The other uses on the north side of the street are not conducive to entertainment sites.
