The question should be Why are the unruly crowd gather at Greektown and no other parts of downtown or midtown? Not that I am encouraging them to. The activists would protest if police show a heavy handed approach to stopping the crime that occurred in Greektown. However, at the same time young people had been running a muck at that spot. Yes it can be saved by returning it back to being a Greektown with Greek restaurants and venues and not changing it into a hipster town with venues that attract the wild. Greektown and the Riverwalk are the two most tourist attracted utilized areas downtown with the acception of Campus Martuis. Some would blame Buffalo Wild Wings and not blame the other restaurants and bars in the same area. Some would blame the lack of jobs and rec centers for the youths to keep them off the streets. There is an outdoor skating rink and basketball courts at Campus Martius for the young people to enjoy themselves. It is sad that these young thugs set out to cause havoc downtown while the rest of the city have isolated incidents of violent crimes.
