Lost & Found — Washington, D.C. Opened in 1971 on L Street SE, Lost & Found quickly became one of the defining gay clubs of Washington, D.C.’s nightlife scene. Its warehouse-style space hosted packed disco nights, drag performances, and themed parties that drew crowds from across the city for nearly three decades. Known for its lively dance floor and welcoming atmosphere, it offered a home for connection and celebration at a time when queer spaces were few and far between.
