Last Appeal To Block Carson Street Strip Club Denied
Pa. Supreme Court Won’t Hear Pittsburgh’s Appeal Against MarquisePOSTED: 3:58 pm EDT September 16, 2011UPDATED: 4:15 pm EDT September 16, 2011
PITTSBURGH — The Pennsylvania Supreme Court won’t hear an appeal by the city of Pittsburgh aimed at overturning a judge’s approval of a new strip club in the West End.
The city has opposed the club owned by Marquise Investments because it would be next door to the Onala Club, which aids drug and alcohol addicts in their recovery.
But attorneys for Marquise convinced Allegheny County Judge Joseph James last year that the proposed site on West Carson Street is one of few available under stringent zoning rules requiring buffer zones to keep adult businesses away from schools and churches.

The judge ruled on the zoning issue only after City Council twice failed to hold a public hearing requested by the strip club’s owner.
