Stonewall Inn struggling, the iconic site of the 1969 riots, may be forced to close

The site of the historic uprising that launched the gay rights movement, has been closed since the onset of the coronavirus pandemic.

The Stonewall Inn, which has been owned by Kurt Kelly and Stacy Lentz since 2006, has been shuttered for more than three months. On June 13, they started a GoFundMe page Today reports.

«We are reaching out because like many families and small businesses around the world», the owner’s GoFundMe page reads. «The Stonewall Inn is struggling».
