Keeping the titty in Long Island City

From The Real Deal:

A large strip club at the base of the Queensboro Bridge in Queens Plaza is fighting the city's efforts to force it out of its valuable location in Long Island City, a decade after zoning laws pushed it out of another location two miles away, according to a lawsuit filed Monday.

The gentleman's club, Scandals, at 24-03 Queens Plaza North, is suing the city and the Department of Buildings to stop the government from trying to change the club's certificate of occupancy, which would make it illegal for the club to remain as is in the approximately 6,000-square-foot location.

Scandals maintains that "its First Amendment and other rights have been threatened by the contradictory and erroneous positions of the Department of Buildings," the lawsuit says.

The city applied, through its administrative review agency, the Board of Standards and Appeals, to remove the authorization for an adult club, Scandals’ complaint, filed in New York State Supreme Court, says.

Just who is the owner of this reputable establishment?

I think I am going to need to investigate this one. How much is this going to cost the citizens of this city, other than for the lap dances, of course?

PS Do they take credit cards?

In that area you are lucky that the girls stay inside. They are openly strolling the streets along with their Blood protectors, and it is a very scary area for pretty young High School or College kids taking a bus or train or young office workers.

Hey, thats the Walter McCaffery Entertainment District.

Remember when he SPONSORED legislation that all but banned this from Times Square ... and in classic Queens fashion moved it to his district secure that no one would say anything.

Thats the ticket Queens - be a doormat!

If the girls are from the area streets, then when they squat down on your lap make sure they face you so that you insure you experience a female girl!

Maybe the new crop of girls are those who moved into the waterfront condos who suddenly found themselve unemployed and need to pay the rent. If so this place will become popular with such fresh hipster girls next door bending over!

Do you know how hard it is to get g-string adult diapers??? Have a little respect! Besides, Mom's been on the rag ever since Hiram turned her down!
