There is, in the middle of the street, constant twerking against my staff’s vehicles. My manager has sent me videos at 3:00 in the morning when they’re done cleaning up, of loud music
Shame local politicians are keeping young scholars just trying to blow off steam down.

Douglas said Murphy’s is equally responsible for issues on the street.

Proposal denied.
Reason: At the local, state, and national levels, this country desperately needs less trashiness and culture, not more.

What do you smoke in a Hookah?
That’s probably not what they’re smoking in it though.

I live by the old Hookah on S Sherwood. Well.........about 3 miles away.
But the loud music was so bad that I could hear the words on their speakers............which were coming from the cars parked on the side/middle of the road.
One Sunday night was so bad loud that I thought a Metallica show had started. I wish it was that type of music.
So glad that thing got shut down finally...............it was horrible.

At least you have tailgates and gumbo

Was this a contributing factor in the shooting last year after the game?

That was a different smoke shop on Highland. There's half a dozen of them in the northgates area, it feels like.

Hookah lounges only attract one 2 groups of people. Neither of which would be considered to be upstanding citizens
One opened up near me on Canal and S. Bernadotte St. in N.O. They served Middle Eastern food and featured hookahs for the asking.
The wife and I would frequent Mona's on Banks St. in Mid-City and enjoyed their food but decided to give the new place a try.
When we arrived there were few customers but before we left the place was filling up and the "culcha" was real and getting rowdy. Not our cup of tea and that was our one and only visit.
We stick to Mona's.

I can’t wait to see Gary Chambers ranting about this “blatant racism” on a live stream.

It wasn't the Ra Shop, it was the former bank and ATM across the street from The Varsity / The Revelry.
There are/were those two, the former copy shop on W State, 420 Smoke at Aster (the former Little Caesars, a bank before that), the former Charlie's on W Chimes (several failed businesses before that), and The Lotus on W Chimes mentioned in the OP article. One or two of those six are closed or temporarily closed, and there may have been a seventh that is also closed.

There is a hookah bar in downtown Hammond, that is almost single handedly ruining that area.

Got a tattoo at the place down the parking lot from that one a couple years back. Parking lot was covered in crawfish garbage & empty alcohol bottles all from the hookah lounge overnight. trash.

I was just ab to bring this one up. I'm assuming the one in the shopping center near airline?
I did not know that it shut down, driving by that place on sherwood at night when they were busy was quite the sight. median, and field across the street lined with culcha selling shite out the back of their vehicles. people everywhere. not quiet. surprised there was never a shooting

“I can tell you that there is no music, poetry, or art going on at the Lotus.
This is a plus. Who the frick wants to listen to a bunch of stoned wannabe poetasters? The music would be atrocious - a bunch of beret wearing, tone deaf, cavaquinho playing weirdos. Primitive art a first grader could create will be worshiped as having "great inner meaning."
I'd much rather have a bunch of weed puffers hanging out.
