Why Soho residents are objecting to a new strip club
Briefly

Soho, once the heart of London's sex industry, is facing potential change as proposals for a new full-nudity strip club, The Penthouse Club, emerge. Residents are divided; some fear a return to its notorious past, while others argue for preserving Soho's vibrant adult entertainment legacy. The club, owned by John Kirkendoll, promises a premium experience with various performances. Ongoing discussions highlight the evolving nature of Soho as a family-friendly destination versus its cultural history.
Locals are trying to stop The Penthouse Club from opening in Soho's Walker's Court, fearing it will return the area to its past as a red light district.
The Penthouse Club insists it will operate as a 'premium' venue showcasing music, drag, and acrobatics, but residents are concerned about its nude performances.
