Last week we heard LA’s Normandie Room was forced to shut its doors for good despite its status as the only lesbian bar in West Hollywood. Now it looks like Chicago refuge Star Gaze will face the same fate. New blog Chicago Now reports that while public opinion of the Star Gaze is a bit cloudy, for some women it offers the only option for lesbian-catered nightlife in a male saturated gay scene. Is this a coincidence or something indicative of a broader shift in the ladies’ partying habits these days? Or just another result of the great American recession?
