HOMO BARS DISAPPEARING AT AN ALARMING RATE. GUESS GUYS WILL HAVE TO MEET GUYS ON A THURSDAY NIGHT AT STOP AND SHOP, OR THE LIBRARIES OF THE WORLD
South End resident Rob McDevitt lives a block-and-half behind Cathedral Station and frequents the restaurant often. An organization he is a part of, Boston Alliance of Gay Sports, often hosts events there, including a sock drive on Friday.
“As a middle-aged gay white male, I want to look at safety and walking the streets I wouldn’t feel safe,” McDavitt said. “It’s basically having a space I could go to, meet up with friends in my own neighborhood that I would be losing.”
City Council Ed Flynn called Cathedral Station a Boston “treasure” as it has stayed open while other LGBTQ safe spaces close in the community. There are just a handful of gay sports bars and pubs in the city. https://www.bostonherald.com/2023/01/21/catching-hot-smoke-cathedral-station-in-bostons-south-end-could-become-pot-shop/
