Welcome to GA Ave in DC where we have a strip club next to the public charter school. I get more complaints about the school than the club.

People always bring up this theoretical strip club next to an elementary school as an example of why we need zoning; but it makes no sense to me. Strip clubs have opaque windows and door staff to keep minors out, and they generally are not open during school hours.
