The Village Pride Line: A Landmark Walk to Belonging
Begin at Stonewall's living history, follow Christopher Street to Ty's multigenerational barroom, then close with a late slice at Artichoke Basille's.
Three Stops, One Story
Stonewall Starts the Story
Start at The Stonewall Inn, where the 1969 riots turned a neighborhood tavern into a landmark of LGBTQ+ rights. The ground floor still runs as a lively bar and stage, while upstairs holds dancing, performances, and pool. Arrive after 2 PM, then check the night's show before climbing upstairs.
Christopher Street Keeps Time
Walk west along Christopher Street to Ty's Bar, a gay neighborhood fixture open since 1972. Dim light, vintage decor, old-school music, and a multigenerational crowd give the room its lived-in rhythm. There is no kitchen, so order a low-priced drink and listen to the room.
Finish With a Big Slice
Turn back east and cut south to Artichoke Basille's on MacDougal Street. The takeout-focused shop stays open late and serves oversized slices, including its creamy artichoke signature and vodka pepperoni. Seating is scarce, so take your slice outside and close the route moving.
