Sparkie, You're absolutely correct, my bad. I'm suffering some "brain fade". I forgot they pretty much closed down the Flats area because of all the shootings and fights. Unfortunately (during the summer months) the fights are starting to spring up in the Warehouse District now. I guess it's probably no worse than any other larger city, but the Police have a handle on it.
There are a lot of nice nightclubs and restauants downtown as you said. The Crawford Auto Museum is cool too. But Geeeezz, a couple little fires on a river (40 and 60 years ago) and there goes the neighborhood. lol
