Club 21, located in the Florentine Building at 117 1/2 Richard Arrington Jr Boulevard North, was a bar in the late 1980s and early 1990s. It featured a regular Thursday Night line-up with a live DJ, John Kelley. In this mixed bar (Straight, gay, Bi) it was customary to dress up for this weekly event. The grand ballroom with its elevated dance floor would be filled with revelers wearing "gothic" clothing. Memory Lane, the clothing store in Five Points South owned and operated by Fancher Lane, specialized in the clothing and jewelry where much of this "Goth" merchandise was available to the public.
