vinod Posted June 14, 2010 Report Share Posted June 14, 2010 Not at all likely. And shit like that would never even make the news here. SC property/buildings are owned by at least a dozen different owners. It would take years to buy it all and you'd notice the shutting of shops as they were bought up. As others have said, silly rumour only with no basis in reality. From what I heard since the time I was going from late 1990's, that the majority properties is owned by old women....not sure :question: :question: .... cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
itsmedave Posted June 14, 2010 Report Share Posted June 14, 2010 gobbledonk said <> Honestly, I don't thing Flasher meant anything to do with Central World Plaza. His statement was something frequently said about Bangkok...that we don't need more hotels and shopping centers because there are so many already...which is true, even without the old World Trade Center.

Stickman Posted June 15, 2010 Report Share Posted June 15, 2010 No chance of Cowboy being demolished any time soon. Nana Plaza is another story. Come the end of 2012 when the master lease is up, anything is possible... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alfmaz Posted June 15, 2010 Report Share Posted June 15, 2010 I think there trying to move everything about sex to Pattaya, you can now go to the Barracuda bar in Pattaya and get the same show plus the Suzie Wong shows. They don't know that lots of tourist go and see the shows as well in Bangkok. I was sitting as Suzy Wong's last month in Bangkok and there where old couples sitting up the back watching the lesbian show good show by the way Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jigger Posted June 16, 2010 Report Share Posted June 16, 2010 Soi Cowboy has long been a holdout along a long line of building developments. The last block of traditional shophouses along Soi Asoke. Way too much money to shut it down! (photos from 2005) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dali Posted July 3, 2010 Report Share Posted July 3, 2010 The 'rule of thumb' in real estate is that all properties migrate toward their 'highest and best' use (mainly from a financial perspective though social concerns are sometimes also given priority). With the amount of cash flow Soi Cowboy regularly brings in for a bunch of old buildings on a narrow stip, it may already be at its highest and best use. :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
