A must for hedonists, S&M and leather fans. The Eagle NYC added a video to their Instagram account: “New York's Premier Gay Leather Cruise Bar ︎ Roof deck opens 9pm on Wed & Thu 8pm Fri & Sat 5pm…”. The space had formerly been a pub, but the owners decided to open The Eagle’s Nest there instead after the 1969 Stonewall Riots. Cover!!!! We're closed this evening due to bad weather. Near the new gay nightlife and close to Central Park, Iconic New York location and near all the theaters of Broadway. On Friday, October 5, 2001, The Eagle reopened at 554 W 28th Street. The works of Tom of Finland became icons for masculine homoeroticism and were finding their way into museums and galleries worldwide. Gay Bashing by marauding thugs was not uncommon in this remote area of New York.
