People have lost the willingness to build/contribute to such spaces, they just want them to magically exist in the off chance they might want to drop in. The very act of creating social clubs has been stigmatized as dumb/dork/out culture. The places that did exist other than the VFW only have the generation before baby boomers left going to them which is now self fulling in guaranteeing no new people will join. Next to go will be any local symphony/theaters/museums that depend on season ticket holders and committed fundraisers as the new 'everything just exists in case I want to just drop in' culture stops buying season tickets and only come on the 'free' open hours intended to get new supporting members to see the value of the places' existence.
