There is also expected to be plenty of security, but outside, there are neighbors who are expressing concerns about noise and what traffic is going to look like when Club Nomadic opens its doors.

Residents say they often park on the street, making cars prime targets for break-ins around the site of Club Nomadic.

But, club organizers say they have a plan in place to secure the area, and to help protect residents in the area.

Some 52 officers are expected to patrol the surrounding area, in cars and on bikes. Traffic closings will also help keep traffic jams at bay.

Parking has also been expected to be a big concern, but organizers say shuttles will bring partygoers from One Allen Center, where cars will be parked.

Tow truck drivers also cannot tow cars, unless they get the express permission of HPD.
