Bar list page from the September 26, 1985, issue of Windy City Times. In the past 30 years, many things about the gay scene have changed, while some have not. The top right ad is for the former Christopher Street, which is now the location of Hydrate and was also Manhole in the interim. Both Little Jim’s and The Closet are still open and in the same locations. The listing also includes The Bijou Theatre, which is slated to close after this coming weekend after 45 years. Also in the listing is Sidetrack, still on Halsted, same location, but expanded north and south.
