Abstract
Marc Fallow moved to Logan Circle in 1980 and Larry Rosen in 1981, and they lived in a group house at 19 Logan Circle after answering ads on a bulletin board at Lambda Rising and in The Washington Blade. Marc was drawn to neighborhood by articles in The Washington Post about the area’s resurgence. Larry, moving from the Maryland suburbs, was seeking a place more suited to “a youngish queer person.”
They capture that time with anecdotes about a neighborhood in flux; limited dining, drinking and shopping in Logan Circle and the trek to other gay hot spots in the city; gay musical groups; and gay activism. To quote Marc, “I am glad that we were the age we were when we were, where we were, at Logan Circle.”
