yep, ambassador (that shyt was ghetto as fukk...fun as hell tho) and a few events after concerts down there turned me off from SJ.San Jose has notoriously racist police which is why real nikkas haven't fukked with their club scene since ambassadors got shut down because of the influx of nikkas it brought there
oakland fumbled a lot of shyt having to do with developments, part of it was the recession, but at the same time, folks had already been moving back into oakland and the recession made even more people move to the town. oakland shut down all that shyt in jack london and have blocked and/or politicized the hell outta all redevelopment plans, downtown didn't develop to the scale it was supposed to to support all the condos in jack london and uptown. they've blocked (or bogged down) quite a few development concepts for west oakland's army base and unused parts of the port. jack london could've easily placed a ballpark and/or basketball stadium there. philly has one of the goat sports entertainment areas, that xfinity live center in philly is the prototype of what should've been done in other cities with multiple teams playing in a deserted areaOakland was trying to push a plan called Coliseum City, it was basically a plan to keep all the teams in the area and to do what you mentioned which was to redevelop the coliseum area, but it was going to cost millions so I think the idea flopped
