"FUEGO EN LA RIVIERA NITE CLUB" (8" x 10" INCHES - GELATIN SILVER) ORIGINAL B&W VINTAGE 50's-60's PHOTOGRAPHS FROM PERIODICO "EL IMPARCIAL" SOME CREASES AND WEAR FROM TIME PUERTORICAN ADULT ENTERTAINMENT HISTORY MEMORABILIA "La Riviera Nite Club", was the most famous adult entertainment center in San Juan. A popular attraction for locals, expatriates and tourists, La Riveria was constantly being raided by the police. In the 1970s, societal changes marked the decline of his club. Tursi would say "I’m going broke because people are now getting for free what we used to charge for!" Tursi repeatedly rejected suggestions to turn La Riviera into a gay disco as he found the idea personally offensive. Tursi finally agreed to sell his nightclub to the government, which promptly demolished it.
