Thye’re Queer, They’re Near…Howdy New York City!!!

Ansonia Hotel
2101–2119 Broadway at 73rd St
Bette Midler used to put on quite a show in the Continental Baths, a gay men’s club in the hotel’s basement—which is now a Food Emporium. Feel her aura heat up the frozen-food aisle, or head into the Ansonia for a drink at the bar, which she must have graced on occasion.
