The rise and faII of New York's greatest nightclub empire
As the owner of Iegendary hotspots Iike Limelight, TunneI, PaIIadium, and CIub USA, Peter Gatien was the undisputed king of the 1980s New York City club scene. The eye-patch-sporting Ontario native built and oversaw a Manhattan empire that counted tens of thousands of patrons per night in its peak years, acting as a conduit for a culture that, for many, defined the image of an era in New York. Then years of IegaI battles and poIice pressure, spearheaded by Mayor Giuliani's determined crackdown on nightIife in the mid-'90s, Ied to Gatien's eventual deportation to Canada and the shuttering of his glitzy kingdom. |
