Gaslight Square-The Forgotten Landmark |
|
|
|
The making of the video documentary. |
|
|
|
Gaslight Square was a compact thriving entertainment district that was far more notorious than Bourbon street at the time. Original music was everywhere and the streets were lined with packed clubs and restaurants. Many of todays top entertainers began their career's here, such as the Smothers Brothers, Barbra Streisand, and Phyllis Diller. The area boasted of live jazz, poetry, Irish dancing, great food, and streetcars. It would take a half hour to go 2 blocks in your car. Gaslight Square was truly a unique, hot area.
Now 35 years later nothing remains of Gaslight Square's golden era except abandon buildings and lingering memories.
