February 20, 20206 yr From South China Morning Post Amsterdam is looking at moving part of its red light district indoors to an “erotic” complex where prostitutes no longer beckon customers through street-front windows that often attract rowdy tourists. In plans released Wednesday, the Dutch city said the complex could include a bed and breakfast for prostitutes as well as a sex club, sex theatre and cafes. Or the city famous for its canals will build a large hotel for sex workers. “All in all, a prostitution hotel with indoor windows or an erotic centre is the most obvious choice,” the Amsterdam city council said in a statement. “These options have the most advantages and the fewest disadvantages,” it said in the statement. https://www.scmp.com/news/world/europe/article/3051489/amsterdam-could-move-parts-iconic-red-light-district-indoor
February 20, 20206 yr This is not a new idea. Cologne (Köln) apparently has a multi-storey brothel in the suburbs. I believe Cologne also used to have a closed off street for prostitution in the past, since I once saw a photograph of such a street on the wall of a bar. Upon further examination, we worked out that looked very much like the street we were on, but taken before the area was cleaned up.
