19 Bar, a Minneapolis gay bar open since the 1950s, closes after crash sparks fire

Minneapolis’ 19 Bar is shuttered after a fire burned through the building on Friday.

The popular gay bar has stood at West 15th Street since the 1950s. It calls itself one of the oldest operating gay bars in the United States.

There were no injuries reported. The bar wrote in a Facebook post that it’s closed until further notice.
