“In a perfect world, I want Nubian Square to look like Lower Mills,” with a smattering of watering holes and nighttime restaurants, Smith said. “Because if more people came to Roxbury, Roxbury people will thrive. Once you get money in the door, you grow.”

The public perception is dismal, with 88 percent of respondents to a Boston.com survey faulting the city for closing too early and having too few late-night restaurants, food trucks, and clubs. One person called Boston “a liberal city whose night life is imprisoned in a chastity belt.”
