Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Infobox restaurant Henrietta Hudson, originally named Henrietta Hudson Bar & Girl, is a queer[1] restaurant and lounge in Manhattan's West Village neighborhood.[2] It operated as a lesbian bar from 1991 to 2014. Until it rebranded in 2021,[3] it was one of three remaining lesbian bars in New York City.[4][5][6] Henrietta Hudson's location is the original location of the Cubbyhole bar,[7] which had the distinction of being lesbian-owned and managed.[8][9][10]
History
Lisa Cannistraci and bar owner Minnie Rivera opened Henrietta Hudson in 1991 as a lesbian-centric bar.[7] The establishment became New York City's longest-operating lesbian bar after the closure of other similar venues.[11][4][12][13][14] Gay liberation icon Stormé DeLarverie was a bouncer at Henrietta Hudson well into her 80s.[6]
Part of the bar's ongoing evolution included removal of the "lesbian bar" descriptor in 2014.[15] In a 2019 interview, Lisa Cannistraci said she did not "care whether or not it is known specifically as a lesbian bar...I just want people to come and have a great experience."[12] Following its closure due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Cannistraci announced plans to rebrand and expand Henrietta Hudson into a "café, lounge, bistro, coffee house, [and] cocktail place".[3][16][17]
The rebranding, however, resulted in controversy due to Cannistraci soliciting financial contributions from lesbians with a "Save the Bar" crowdfunding for Henrietta Hudson,[18][19][20] and also participating in the Lesbian Bar Project fundraising campaign to save lesbian bars,[21][22] despite using the donations to reopen the venue as a "queer" space no longer catering exclusively to lesbians.[23]
