Besides the above mentioned speculation, here is another reason to visit Pattaya in 2020 from another forum, I got my 2020 outbound USA-Thailand trip booked and planning to book my accommodations nearby.
2020 Change coming to Pattaya’s Avenue shopping center being changed to a “Nana Plaza” complex

Yes I can confirm this is not just speculation. Been in the planning and negotiation stage for months and now been granted. Pattaya city Hall and banglamung are 100% behind the project. All planning has been approved. Phase 1 is 39 gogo bars and 2 clubs. Phase 2 is approximately 40 beer bars. More will be added as space frees up. Certain venues staying such as cinema, bowling, villa market, fitness 7, Robin hood, Starbucks and mc Donald's. Rents half the price of walking Street, and alot lower than LK Metro. If the barowners have any sense they will pass these savings to the consumer. The Avenue is a red zone, so gogo licenses can be granted and 24 hr opening.
Some major players in Pattaya have already been allocated plots.
Architects have designed the layout, construction starts soon.
On Dec 17, Solice also responded:
The avenue finally realised that rinse and repeat on food halls and shops was not the answer. I'm sure there will be ladyboy bars, I will likely move sensations there when the beer bar phase kicks in.
On Dec 17, Solice also responded:
Hopefully the first phase will be ready for opening in April. Large building firm from BKK coming to start construction.
--------------------
Nana Plaza has a total of approx. 37 bars, 30 bars, 7 LB bars, and 3 ST hotels
Soi Cowboy has approx. 40 bars, mostly go-go bars.
The number of bars in Phases 1 & 2, will be approx. equal to Nana Plaza and Soi Cowboy.
