Three and a half years ago, the ‘gay scene’ of Los Angeles was largely a two-neighborhood proposition. Since the early ’80s, West Hollywood has been a gayborhood of epic proportions, and six miles away sits Silver Lake, a second gayborhood pre-dating WeHo that has long prided itself on its leather bars and a more ‘divey’ gay scene. That duality changed altogether when “DTLA’s new pink triangle” popped up during the summer of 2015, but alas, the triangle is no more as Bar Mattachine closed its doors on Sunday, Aug. 19.
