That blog mentions something near a YWCA and also at 617K.
Any info on them? Please PM if you know anything.

Still haven't found what I'm looking for.
Ok. Here's what.
No go at the Rio. The place appeared to be open. Not too sure though. There was some activity on the street in front of the place and I got a few looks when I rang the bell. Just waited and waited. Nothing! Ok. Change gears.
Sun is gone. What's up next. I'm thinking. McDonalds. NOT. Coco (with the awesome boobs) or Jeanie (sp?) with the smooth clam that was awesome the last time. Off we go to visit the OK Corral.
There was a LOT of PoPo activity out side the place. I just chilled in the car for a good 30 min. I decided to call due to the sheer amount of people out last night. Close to midnight I thought it would be less crowded. Phone number has been disconnected! I decide to walk around the block, to get a good look at everything. A single cruiser is parked on the street behind the Corral. No lights on, he's just filling out paperwork (?)
I can't see any lights on in the place, which I guess is normal. I'm heading for the buzzer and notice another monger has just pressed it. Way cool! I cross the street and notice the dude isn't getting buzzed up. He leaves.
Looks like the OK is gone too. Damn. Just when I need my medicine! Ok, moving on. If anyone has good success please post or PM me.
Be safe out there.
Cabbie!
"Cheh it isn't so" - OK closed for good
[QUOTE=Dc1000]"I am pleased to inform you that the operator of OK Spa massage parlor located at 2428 Wisconsin Avenue, NW has agreed to permanently cease all business activity and vacate the premises as of April 6th.
This comes as a result of a DCRA investigation and resulting lawsuit via the Office of Attorney General, and marks the first concrete result of a targeted effort to eliminate nuisance properties and illegal business activities in our neighborhoods. Please feel free to contact Susan Banta, Chief of Staff, [email]sbantaatdccouncil. Us[/email] to inform of us of similar nuisance cases that may require investigation.

oh, no. Having Mary Cheh involved in shutting down the spas does not bode well for any spa in the city, particularly ones in Ward 3 (represented by Mary Cheh). I respect her as an attorney and professor, and she does take a liberal view on many issues (e.g., see her successful efforts in bending Pepco's arms to institute domestic partner benefits).
However, it seems her views on the spas are more aligned with her more well-heeled, conservative constituents in NW. The particular problem with Mary Cheh being involved is that she is essentially an expert on constitutional and criminal law, and the use of exisiting civil, rather than criminal laws to shut the spas down (think asset forfeiture and possible landlord liability for renting his property to a "nuisance" ). She roughly outlines the approach in one of her papers (for those with an extra five minutes [url]http://*******.com/33r7cw[/url])
Unfortunately, it seems like the spas are open to attack now on both civil and criminal fronts.
Still, (wishful thinking, I know) I'm holding out that Prof. Cheh will be open to changing her mind on the spas, noting the particular lack of "nuisance" created by the spas (lets not get into a debate on that pesky "human trafficking" argument). Perhaps, she may even be persuaded by the argument that shutting down the spas provides yet one less stress relief outlet for the endless supply of lawyers that her and her colleagues pump out every year. My friends tell me its not easy to sneak an escort into your office these days!
C'mon Mary, stop by sometime for a massage by one of the cute K-girls. You'll be GLADD you did!
We have spotted the enemy and WE are it!
I think one of the greatest risks to our diversion is when one or more of us gets drunk or high on something and then stumbles in and around a spa making a mess and being noisy.
Might I suggest that after a night of hitting the sauce we just go home and sleep it off rather than cause the disturbances we hear about so often.
Maybe we could find a trash can to put the empty can or bottle in? Perhaps we could all take a piss BEFORE leaving the bar rather than using the stairwells?
Of course, we cannot control what the homeless folks do but we CAN contol what WE do!
If no one complains we will have much less to be afraid of when we visit our friends.
Just one (horny) man'e opinion...
