1970s–1990s, TESTED NOVEMBER 2026 · TESTED NEGATIVE ON THIS GROUND; THE ERA AT THE BOUNDARY
Tested negative, searches shown: the word "nightclub" occurs nowhere in this build, and the audit ordered the absence tested rather than assumed. The tests were run in November 2026 across the era's own shelves: the city and county directories of the 1970s through the 1990s for any Granger listing under nightclub, disco or dance club; the South Bend Tribune's record for those decades, searched on the same words against the CDP and both townships; and the Indiana ATC's permit record, in which a big room of the era would have held a tavern-class permit rather than a restaurant permit. No Granger nightclub, disco or dance hall appears on any of the three shelves. The era itself is documented where it happened: the Seahorse's floor turned under disco balls in the 1970s telling above, and the county's later big room, Club Fever at 222 South Michigan Street in South Bend, stands in the Observer of 3 March 2014 as a room keeping nightclub hours, nine in the evening to three in the morning on Fridays. Between the disco decade and Club Fever, the county's big rooms were city rooms. This ground in those decades was building subdivisions, not dance floors — its evening economy was the restaurant-bar record Food & Drink already carries — and the negative prints at the era's true size: the disco age passed Granger by entire, not because the search was thin but because there was no room for it to have happened in.
Searches run November 2026 as described in the text: directories 1970s–1990s; the Tribune record for those decades (nightclub, disco, Granger, Clay and Harris townships); the Indiana ATC permit record. The boundary instances: the Seahorse record in article art-46-7 above; Club Fever per the Observer, 3 March 2014.
