The Mineshaft: One Of New York’s Most Infamous Clubs

Long before New York’s Meatpacking District became a luxury shopping destination, it was home to one of the most legendary underground clubs in LGBTQ+ history: the Mineshaft. Hidden behind an unmarked entrance at 835 Washington Street, the club became a symbol of sexual freedom, leather culture, nightlife rebellion, and unapologetic self-expression during the late 1970s and early 1980s.
