Some people have fond memories of Boston's (now mostly paved under) adult entertainment zone. See the most recent comments toward the bottom of this Combat Zone defintion, from a dancer, a waitress and a guy whose father managed one of the lounges:
... The people that worked in and owned the strip joints, bars, book stores, and other places were mostly all hard working individuals trying to make a living. We paid our taxes and contributed to society. ...

I remember my first foray down thataway. '85 maybe it was. Within five minutes we were offered pot and fake ID's. Just what a growing college boy like myself needed.
Then the bar tab at the "Naked I" hit the table (ID's? We didn't need no stinkin' ID's).
"Excuse me! How much for a bottle of Bud again???"
