The Ninth Circle was a staple of 1970s–80s Greenwich Village nightlife. Housed in a former steakhouse at 169 W. 10th Street, it evolved into a popular gay bar known for its lively jukebox, casual pool tables, and a slightly sleazy charm that felt surprisingly welcoming. The crowd was diverse—leather types, twinks, hustlers, and even celebrity drop-ins like Andy Warhol drifted through its doors. It was a time before niche marketing dominated, and Ninth Circle’s eclectic mix made it feel both raw and alive. The bar closed in the early 2000s, but its memory endures as a snapshot of a freer, unfiltered era in queer club life.
I use Bella + Canvas 3001 Unisex tees for all of my designs. They are a soft and light cotton. If you love another brand, please let me know and I can see if I can source it. I can also do my designs on tanks, long sleeve tees, sweatshirts, hoodies and posters. Just reach out with any custom requests and I'll gladly help you out. I do like large prints, but if you want the design scaled down, please contact me before placing an order and I can send you some mock ups.
