Downtown nightclub planned amid noise concerns and history
A development group led by Three Cool Guys Properties aims to convert the vacant Towne Theatre into a high end nightclub. Spokesman Mike Waskalik, citing silent partner Tim Clugston’s Roadhouse experience, says noise and street activity will be managed with a sound system study and measures to push late crowds away from homes. The plan, approved by the Municipal Planning Commission, promises a mature clientele and cautions against past incidents while noting engineers expect sound levels to stay below problem thresholds.
