Are you ready to delve into the dark, scandalous history of Times Square? Let us take you on a journey back in time to the days when the Great White Way was a red light district, and the Crossroads of the World was XXX-rated. Led by Robert Brenner, a licensed New York City tour guide who spent his youth immersed in the debauchery of Times Square, you'll explore the seedy past of New York City's most infamous district.
From former peepshows and adult book stores to dive bars and sex clubs, we'll visit the places where the demimonde of Times Square once congregated. Along the way, you'll learn about the personalities who made Times Square what it was, from the King of the Peeps to the woman who built a gay and S&M porn empire.
But be warned, this tour is not for the faint of heart. We'll be showing some graphic vintage photographs that may not be appropriate for all ages.
