then and now: danceteria

"The most famous version of Danceteria, one of the most iconic New York night clubs of the '80s, was located at 30 West 21st St. The club was basically ground zero for Madonna's career in the early '80s, and its regulars included Jean-Michel Basquiat, Keith Haring, LL Cool J, Cyndi Lauper, Sonic Youth, Run-DMC, The B-52s, Billy Idol, Duran Duran, and New Order. Now the space is occupied by a showroom for high-end granite and marble products."
