In a nutshell: Frank's Place is one of Southeastern CT's hottt gay and lbian bar venu, loted New London. New London — It had been the cy’s last gay bar. New London — When the Whalg Cy’s last remag gay bar, O’Neill’s Brass Rail, announced was closg last month, the news sent shockwav through the regn’s LGBTQ muny.

Turng out to the bar those remag days to both mourn the impendg closure and celebrate, that muny was sudnly forced to reckon wh the remr of a larger trend sweepg the natn: gay bars, due to a variety of reasons rangg om risg rents to a proliferatn of datg apps, are closg. But even though the bar has sce reopened — owner Donald O’Neill cled to ment why or how — a larger qutn still remaed: What would mean for New London, as well as the regn, to lose s last gay space?

FOR LGBTQ MUNY, GAY BARS ARE 'SAFE PLACE' TO EXPERIMENT, FD ONELF

'Every cy needs a gay space'. For many members of New London’s LGBTQ muny, gay bars are dispensable meetg pots — plac where they uld not jt socialize and meet others, but which act as a safe spac to e out and creatively explore onelf.

“It was the place where, when I turned 18 and had jt e out, I went to dance, ” said T Abad, 26, an openly gay bartenr at Bank Street’s The Social Bar + Kchen, who equents the Brass Rail about three days a week. He ma feel safe to fd myself there, ” Coronado said, who has sce bee an active member of New London’s gay muny, pecially supportg s drag queens. “And nowadays, every cy still needs a gay space.

The Whalg Cy ntually monstrat openns to s LGBTQ muny: The Social, known as an LGBTQ-iendly bar, hosts s monthly drag bnch, and Bank Street's Docksi Rort Bar recently announced would host weekly gay dance and karaoke nights. But Coronado, and others The Day spoke wh, say New London and the regn still have progrs to make terms of gay acceptance.
