Adult Bowling Alley

Thrift Store

Karaoke with private rooms like Karaoke rock 21 in palisades Park

More bars that allow music/live shows

DIY shops. You can rent a space, tools, or whatever else you need in case you want to do work but don't have a large space or backyard. There was a spot in Hoboken but since the warehouse is being demolished and made into luxury apartments I don't know of any other locations on this side of the Hudson.

Edit: The same people from Hoboken moved to Union City and just opened in November. Their website here: https://www.thediyjoint.com/#home

Indoor Sports location. Various sports held inside. Basketball court, tennis court, batting cage (there is one in Union City), and whatever other sports they can fit comfortably.

Karaoke is needed and I really think it would do well around here?? We’ve got a bar scene , nightlife and mad Asians. Why does it not exist

Commercial space for something like this is at a premium. Something like that would need multplie rooms large enough to accommodate a group of people. Most commercial properties here are relatively small. It's why I kind of hate that any old warehouse or building is torn down just to building apartment buildings. There were some that could have been saved and turned into viable options for things like this.

Plus, if this sub is any indication, the noise complaints stemming from something like this would be through the roof. It would have to in a building with no residents or away from any residential buildings. The one in Palisade Park is a stand alone building shared with a medical office next door.

I always felt like harborside could house something like this. I picture that it could be similar to the shops at Columbus circle, which has a kind of mall and upscale restaurants.

My wife and I have been talking about how a karaoke bar with private rooms would be awesome here. Could go in one of the many empty spaces at Hudson Mall and probably do well

Seriously. I would prefer they convert Hudson Mall to more entertainment focused as opposed to shopping. That and Harborside are the only places that can fit these type of businesses.
