The Midtown Entertainment District Ordinance has led to recent closures in the Pablo Kisel area. This action was taken with safety in mind.

Further information on the ordinance and its impact is available from local news sources, including statements from Brownsville officials such as Commissioner Gustavo De Leon and Mayor John Cowen.
