Here’s an OIB moment: Vinegar Syndrome located Downtown where X-rated films are cataloged and restored for home video and theatrical markets. Hmm, wonder how many city pols would love to know about this place. Before you get all prudey, even The New York Times ran a piece on Vinegar Syndrome last week. Check it out.
Between a detention center and a post office here, there’s a large, unremarkable building on a corner. Other than a few parked cars near a loading dock, there’s not much life outside its off-white walls. But walk through the rickety front door and up the concrete stairs, and what’s inside makes the old Times Square look like Mayberry: thousands of boxes filled to overflowing with sexually explicit films and artifacts.
Full story here.
