“It’s an advantage for everyone to occupy this space.”
Mr Prince said Wollongong Nightlife’s proposed expansion recognized the company’s continued investment in the town.
“They’re a key part of the night economy, they’re putting money into CBD,” he said.
“While there are a growing number of small bars, there probably aren’t many entertainment venues, which Mr Crown does.”
Meanwhile, a report accompanying the development application said the proposal would not negatively impact the town centre.
The app will be on display until February 7.
