Over on TheSword, some great photos taken of a vanished cruising ground in NYC

In 1978, and then again in 1982, two artists set out to document a New York City gay cruising space that they correctly assumed was about to go extinct: the decaying warehouses at the Hudson River piers, post-Stonewall, pre-AIDS.

A daily bacchanalia preserved only in photos and sense memory. If you haven’t seen it – you should check out “Gay Sex in the Seventies”. It’s available to watch instantly on your netflix!
