08-27-2003, 02:22 PM

I know there is a Gay Street in Greenwich Village in New York City, near the Stonewall Inn. I don't know about the one in Canada though...

sablescort · 08-27-2003, 04:41 PM

Downtown Knoxville has a Gay Street!

This is Knoxville's Gay Street during the late '50s.

50 years later, Gay Street looks almost the same, but it's now mostly brick pavement. It is Downtown Knoxville's main street.

How about Cedar Springs in Dallas, Texas?? I been there and there is other street but I rarely go there is Market Rd. Here in St Louis, there is different streets, I had to named it in the list. Mostly I would say Central West or Forset Park.

Went to adult store, I forgot the name of that store but it is very popular for the tourist to visit there. It is very hard to decide to pick out the diololi (spell). I do not know which right size for me.

No no, There is a Gay Street too. Christopher Street touches Gay Street too, just east of 7th Avenue, I believe.

Oddball · 09-02-2003, 09:50 PM

Gay streets in Las Vegas are Paraside Rd near Tropicana. You will see Gipsy's bar on Paraside Rd, across Buffalo and Freezone bars.

Gay streets in Lakewood, Ohio must be Detroit Ave area, E. 9th, or Lorain Ave. I am not sure cuz I did not checked them out.. my bad!! I will find out when I go back to Cleveland and explore those streets.

BabyPhat21 · 09-03-2003, 05:19 PM

Mark Rejhon · 10-06-2003, 01:30 AM

Not sure if you meant the street name "Gay St." or the name of a big gay village?
Anyway, on the topic of gay villages:

Do you mean "Church Street" in Toronto, Ontario?
Or perhaps you meant "Ste Catherine" St in Montreal, Ontario?

These are much longer than Davie Street in Vancouver. (I think something like 10 blocks, versus 3 blocks)

As for Church Street in TO, that's where they do the filming of the street/bar scene in "Queer As Folk". They actually film the Woody's in "Queer As Folk" at the real Woody's there. Although the Babylon is a different bar (they put up a substitute neon sign during filming). Yeah, they film it there in Canada even though "Queer as Folk" is made by a USA company.

The two places, "Church Street" (Toronto) and "Ste Catherine" (Montreal) are very big gay scenes in North America, bigger than nearly all USA cities and many people think the Toronto-Montreal gay scene is nowadays bigger than San Francisco. (Although some debate that!). Heard to the tune of something like 330,000 gays living in Toronto.

People have their own particular prefrences to what their favourite gay village is, but I think Montreal has a lot of nods, at least locally.

Seeing that you are a dyke, there is a big dyke bar on the second floor of "Le Drugstore" in Montreal. Happend to pass by there during the Pride festival.

OhioCincinn · 10-07-2003, 07:32 PM

One of the gay streets in Canada, located in Toronto, Ontario the street in Church street. it's downtown and you can't miss me.
Toronto also has one of the world's biggest gay pride events at the end of June.
