OPEN AIR SEX SITES IN MOUNT VERNON SQUARE

did you know the area has a rich history of sexual expression?

lower 9th street/MLK library/boystown. in the lower part of the central business district was filled with peep shows, gay bars with dancing and stripping boys. F street next to the MLK was closed to cars and at night was a gathering place for outdoor gay sex. boystown was the neighborhood where alot of cars from maryland and virginia would ride around the block near 7th and F streets NW, the heart of boystown.

with development came more shifting patterns. in the mid 90's boystown move to 5th street from E street all the way to K street. the northern part of boystown still happens outside the fun fair video store. the johns are still driving around and around.

i must mention the transexuals, "the girls" or the coloured TV's who have occupied several specific locations over the years. first they were at 10th and M and in the mid 90's they were run into the 4th and L area where they still work today.

but the biggest outdoor sex location was mount vernon square itself. behind the bushes next to the library surrounding the entire building guys would almost swarm there nightly. and they would carry on until sometimes 7 am the next morning. when the new convention center arrived they tore up all the landscape and pulled out all the hot spots of bushes and improved the lighting.
