In the forced disappearance of porn theaters, peep shows, and street hustlers to make room for a Disney store, a childrens theater, and large, neonlit cafes, Samuel R. Delany saw a disappearance, not only of the old Times Square, but of the complex social relationships that developed there.Samuel R. Delany bore witness to the dismantling of the institutions that promoted points of contact between people of different classes and races in a public space, and in this hybrid text, argues for the necessity of public restrooms and treefilled parks to a city's physical and psychological landscape.This twentieth anniversary edition includes a new foreword by Robert ReidPharr that traces the importance and continued resonances of Samuel R. Delanys groundbreaking Times Square Red, Times Square Blue.
