THE 10 BEST OH GAY CLUBS & BARSGAY CLUBS & BARS OH

Dayton Gay Men's ChosP. Daytonology was visg Sacramento durg Pri Month, so a belated Gay Pri thread for Dayton, dog some Gay History (and, y, there is such a thg)Before Gay Bars: The LeveeI don’t know if there were saloons or halls that tered to gays back before prohibn, but I do know that the police rerds there was one or two arrts per year for ‘impersonatg a female”. Outdoor cisg spots have been pretty mon gay history: famo on were Hempstead Heath London, the Siegle (Victory Column) the Berl Tiergarten, and the square ont of the Bolshoi Theatre Mosw.

For the US ed to be ‘the rocks” on Lake Michigan and Bughoe Square Chigo and Pershg Square Oh pneer gay wrer Edmund Whe mentns the old, pre-urban renewal Founta Square as gay cisg spot and pick-up place his early semi-tobigoraphil fictnAnd for Dayton, might have been this tree shad promena, which might have been more a meetg place rather than a sex space. Another thg that leads me to thk this was the al Levee is that nearby Robert Boulevard was a place of rince for gay men. Olr gay men tell me their first sexual enunters were sometim the old ho, by then turned to apartmentsThe Levee was a long-lastg stutn for those wantg male/male sex.

 OH LBIAN AND GAY BARS, RTRANTS, LODGG, PRI EVENT, BS MAPS

It even ma to the ter era the 1990s as there was the Levee BBS as an early onle meetg & hook-up place for Datyon gay menAnother cisg spot was Cooper Park. The book also has a sectn on “Hobosexualy”, discsg how this sgle society gave some ver for homosexuals.

A llectn of character studi on Chigos’ “Hobohemia” mentns gay, transvte and lbian tablishments as part of Chigo’s Towertown, near Bughoe n also see the SRO/roomer world as the gay habat John Rechy’s Cy of Night, reuntg his days as an erant Dayton, the 1933 hog study helpfully intifi Dayton’s “Roomg Hoe District” as the “1st Ward”’ AKA downtown and environs. Perhaps Dayton’s first "gayborhood (though was shared by a lot of other folks)’s remarkable about this map is the ncentratns, not mentn may not be untg one room and stud apartments, which would up the sgle populatn even further. The most famo was the Ar, but there were others, like the two on the Courthoe Square block (Atlas Hotel and Ratterman Apartments) n easily see this world of downtown apartments and sgle room occupanci givg ver to a gay Olst Gay BarLookg at a map of the block that had the Atlas Hotel and Ratterman Apartments.

And, on this same block was Dayton’s first gay bar, 24 W Send Street. The Lat Lounge, on the ground floor of a parkg garage (click on the image to enlarge) may have been other post-Prohibn plac, but this is the first one old-timers that I’ve talked to what I’ve been told this place wasn’t gay until later at night, which would parallel an old-school approach to socializg and meetg.

GAYDAYTON&TRA; ENTERTAMENT

A bar or rtrant/bar would have a predomantly straight clientele, but as the eveng wore on the straight folk would fish up their dners or drkg and go home, and gays would slowly filter until the tablishment was predomantly gay by late eveng and closg. “Mil” was an old school d way of referrg to one as gay…as “He’s mil”.

MASQUE, A RENOWNED DAYTON GAY BAR, DANCE CLUB CLOSG

Old gay slang…the lost language of queens.

But the yellow pag of 1966-67 do list as havg live name change happened after a btal murr or gay bashg associated wh a Lat Lounge pick-up gone wrong. There was an earlier Stage Door Dayton, but was the Mayfair Burlque buildg, and as far as I know has no relatn to this name Stage Door remaed on 2nd until the early 1970s, when urban renewal moln for Courthoe Square forced the lotn to change to Jefferson Street (1973), where remas ’s Send Gay BarThe well-remembered but short-lived “Club Tai Tae” (the cy directori ll “a cktail lounge”) shared the send floor of the Victoria wh the Schwartz School of Dance.

When Harry passed his funereal was at the lol Metropolan Communy Church (a GLBT-oriented church) and was a sort of landmark Third Olst Gay BarThis beg Dayton buildg moln rears s ugly head any story, and do here, as The Martque, Dayton’s third olst gay bar was torn down, perhaps twice! Prumably served the sgl who were livg the new apartments buildgs Grafton perhaps those buildgs attracted a gay populatn, too.

6 GAY CLUBS & BARS DAYTON THAT YOU SHOULDN'T MISS

There was an ownership change 1970 or 71, and after that the place turned gay.

GAY LIVG AND AROUND DAYTON, OH

It was a nverted old hoe when I moved here, but I am not sure if that was the origal Olst Gay Bar TodayWhen the Stage Door reloted to Jefferson moved to the buildg on the left, wh an expansn the 1980s to the buildg to the right. Reportedly was a stop-over for travelg entertaers who were eher gay or gay edly, among them Betty Whe, who supposedly gave a ltle impromtu ncert hereThe Stage Door is reposng the origal bar as sort of a Country/Wtern place, but at the back of the bar this ltle alve are two mart, remrs of the theatril nnectns of the place.
