  12. San Francisco’s Nightlife Industry: What was Evaluated? • For the purposes of this study, San Francisco's Nightlife Industries include: • Restaurants • Bars • Venues/Nightclubs • Art Galleries • Live Theater and Other Performance. • These industries were included because they represent the economic activity of businesses that provide social activities and entertainment after normal business hours (after 8pm).
