  1. Petebklyn would argue with me that those places in the 50s & 60s are UES. I think it was him arguing about where the UES started. Maybe it was actually dh.

  2. – Yes, brownjokester, along Eight Ave in the 40s.

    Really?!?!? They’re still around. That’s exciting!

    When that street was lined with them. I always wanted to go check them out. To see what you got for .25cents.
    I imagined that you go into a booth, you draw open a curtain and a woman would be dancing naked about 10 feet away for 1 minute.
    Am I right?

  3. gaeity never. that was kinda burlesque place with dancers and the like. an institution but never went. adonis was my favorite. but i say too much. those booth things seemed too dirty and reminded me of convessional things at church but always wanted to go to one of those live sex shows on 8th they used to have.

  4. Thanks, Dave, for the restaurant suggestions. Damn, it’s hard to find a decent place to eat on the UES. No doubt another reason to move to Brooklyn.
