Party district to disappear from Budapest?!
Change language:
The municipality of the 7th district has come up with new plans to transform the current party district into a cultural centre in the inner-Erzsébetváros area.
The future of Budapest’s party district has been in question for years. Now the district mayor has come up with a new idea to create a cultural centre in Inner-Erzsébetváros.
According to Péter Niedermüller, this area has become identified with the “so-called” party district, which despite its economic benefits, has relatively low cultural and social value if a district is about nothing more than unlimited drinking, drunkenness, drug dealing or prostitution.
As he says, the aim of the transformation project – which has not been accepted yet –
is to squeeze these things out of the area and instead offer quality hospitality and cultural events.
As the Hungarian news portal Index reports, the mayor’s idea is to unite with other districts and organise joint events for both younger and older generations. This way a cultural corridor can be created from Petőfi Bridge to Nyugati Railway Station, which can be a new scene not only for the individual districts but also for the whole capital. The only question is:
with the disappearance of the party district, what kind of financial downturn can be expected?
According to the mayor, if they offer high-quality events, hospitality and tourism, they will not necessarily lose significant revenue, quality will compensate for quantity. As he says, the point is to generate revenue that is backed up by quality output.
Perhaps the worst financial plan of current management! After lockdowns and restrictions the most tourism resources will be gone!! Either you don’t want foreigners here or you don’t like money…
I think all people have got the right to sleep at night. Silence should be ensured. A party district can be organised somewhere else in the outskirts where no people live.
Tolerance – commentated on this subject previous in DNH – and Tolerance needs to be “Rediscovered” – in the “changed” world – we ALL live – that is still un-folding post February 2020.
Inter-faced with Tolerance is the “need” to understand and practice – RESPECT.
Tolerance – Respect – but YOU don’t “Kill off” the Party District refered in this article, by having it a disjointed agenda – that could be viewed “one sided” – that those who earn an income from jobs provided, tourist income and in fact in Europe has continued to be discussed and seen – a place growing in what it provides to ENJOY – when visiting Budapest – our National Capital, for people of ALL age groups, not just the YOUNGER Set.
Balance – a leval playing field that in-corporates the need of Tolerance & Respect – under Laws.
If the Laws are abused – introduced written to life style of the 21st century not “archaic” – from another century – that are Disrespected – Abused – enforce the rightful enforcement application of them, but Don’t – because a MIDDLE Ground Solution can’t be Reached – KILL off this area of Budapest – but promote and develope it – in ways that it will attract grow the tourist numbers and huf they spend that benefits – ALL.
It is somewhat a “Shrine” – this Party District and Tolerance and Respect – got to “exhaust” these (2) two words – and ensure – the Party District doesn’t get – Killed off.
Norbert should go to politics if he’s not already there. You say so many words, repeat and emphasize – but zero message.
