Chelsea nyc gay
History
Constructed in when New York’s theater district was centered around 23rd Street, the Victorian Gothic style building was initially one of the city’s first cooperative apartment buildings, but it reopened as a luxury hotel in With Mark Twain, O. Henry, Oscar Wilde, and Sarah Bernhardt among its earliest guests, the Chelsea quickly acquired a bohemian reputation, which heralded its status in the midth century as Modern York’s hub for the Beat generation. “There was none of the anonymous impersonal hotel ambiance…I kept meeting people I knew from Europe in the halls,” Beat writer William S. Burroughs recalled. Further contributing to its lore, writers Gore Vidal and Jack Kerouac famously checked into the Chelsea for sex in after a night out at the San Remo Café and Tony Pastor’s Downtown in Greenwich Village. From the s until his ousting in , manager and part-owner Stanley Bard further cultivated the hotel’s reputation by offering low-cost rent to a variety of eccentrics and occasionally accepting art in lieu of rent.

Many people verb that LGBT life emerged in Chelsea in the first 90s, when skyrocketing rents in Greenwich Village pushed the community northward, and the more visibly obvious members of the gay community the juvenile, hip, tattooed, gym-toned, Chelsea Boys turned Eighth Ave into Americas Gay Main Street for a decade or more.
