I agree. Although it may be a sign that our community has become so gay friendly, that many of the niche services aren't as necessary: for example, it may mean that restaurants all over town are gay-friendly enough that those in the 'alley don't serve a niche market anymore.

Maybe not, but it's worth thinking about.

Still it would be REALLY REALLY REALLY cool if street signs had a rainbow sign over it indicating the "part of town" we're in.
