"The huge Guvernment (formerly RPM) site at Queens Quay and Jarvis was recently sold to a developer and Fly, the last remaining big gay club in the Gaybourhood, may be going condo soon too." |

Its been ordained for years that the Guvernment would eventually have to go - that property is part of the city's waterfront redevelopment masterplan.
That said, it's still most likely several years off. So until the Guv actually announces that it will be closing, it's a little early to be saying goodbye.
And considering that its a successful, profitable business, I wouldn't be surprised to see a new Ink megaclub replace it once it's gone. |

| Don't "agree" with what Guv is playing these days, but we need at least one superclub in this city like that. Still enjoy Schultz and Armin in a setting like that. Can Sound Academy really replace that?? |
