The main drag didn't grow with the population, so traffic to get across the city is 10x worse.

A gay bar shut down for normal, boring business reasons and not because it was hate-crimed like the gay bar that closed when I was a child.

An attempt was made to make a pedestrian-friendly Entertainment District downtown. They forgot to make any changes to actually encourage and protect pedestrians though. Lots of cute little shops and restaurants packed in an area no one wants to walk through.

Fiber! And laid by the city so no one company can claim it to form a new monopoly. We have not one but competing fiber providers!

The football team is still massively popular, despite the golden years being 20+ years ago. So the change is maybe increased desperation intertwined with the neverending optimism that a new golden area is just a season or two out.
