This has been well-discussed on here. There was definitely an agenda against PI (mainly by TDO) and they did all they could to make it fail.
I agree. PI was segregated quite nicely on its own island. Any future adult entertainment district needs to be too.
Both replies are nonsense. TDO WANTING PI to do poorly is purely speculation. I think it's horrible that they closed PI too, but you can't start thinking the speculation is suddenly fact. Not everything is a huge conspiracy.
I'm sure the powers at TDO that wanted it closed had the power to do so at any time. They didn't need to sabotage it to finally be able to remove it.
And the only way for adult offerings to succeed at a new re-imagined DTD is if the crowds are dispursed throughout rather than congregating in one area like they did at the old PI.
