I was looking around the mafia returns business district and it caused me to wonder, "What happens to the old businesses of long ago and dead characters.   I dont think you get any credit for posting in those ancient threads, but I could be wrong.    I also believe those characters have the right to resume their operation, but again i could be wrong.    it is just a  sad note to see all those boarded up windows of long ago.

Some creative minds continue on with their businesses under their new character. Some businesses still even get used though the character that started it has died. I think if you have enough creative juice you can still make use of these places.

It appears you will have to come over to Chicago BD. We have quite a vibrant business environment here. 

Yeah, you can continue it, or do another one. But RP wise, it's either you visit it and take charge, or just plainly visit it. Each post still gets exp. But I think not as much as when you own the the business.

And Anton is right, visit Chi BD. It's RP heaven.
