When the mayor of Madison, Thomas Jackson, came to power in 2008, he promised the city that he would do everything he could to improve the traffic crisis that was happening. Poor roadways, not enough public transport, and a terrible train netowork were just a few of the problems that were crippiling the city. Rush hour is a death scentence for commuters. Last year, Mayor Jackson planned to have a subway system for the almost 1.1 million sims living in the area. Unfortunately, the city ran out of money. Unable to pay for the incredible costs of the subway, the project was abandonned. Today however, with the city going through an incredible boom, construction has begun on the subways once again, with the construction on just two subway stations near downtown.

The Nero Cafe and the Bank of Madison Building have also been demolished. All that remains is the Bingo Hall. The owners argue that it is a historical building, and cannot be demolished because the building was the first theater in Madison. However, the theater is not protected from being demolished, but the citizens are siding with the case of the owners, the building should stay.

The city is now facing a delema. Demolish the building and create more buisiness and resedents, or keep the current resedents happy by leaving the theater the way it is.
