Circle Bar, 1629 Connecticut Ave. NW. 1994–2000 It’s tough for Wayson Jones to name his favorite local gay bar. “I’ve been to so many over the years,” says the artist and D.C. native. He liked Brass Rail, the Eagle’s four locations, and the Fireplace. But a simple math equation leads Jones to his favorite: “According to my metric (number of good times divided by number of visits), it would be the Circle Bar.” Right in the heart of Dupont, he remembers the three-level nightlife hub for being comfortable—“not a dive, but not fancy”—and for its large, street-level windows. In the early days of gay bars, windows were a risk few dared to take. They were boarded up or blacked out to ensure the safety and secrecy of their clientele. “The visibility was nice,” says Jones. “Having it there while the Lambda Rising bookstore was still around gave this feeling of ‘gay establishment’ that I appreciated.” He remembers the bar’s diversity when it came to race if not gender. But his favorite memory revolves around a bar game: “The best pool shot I ever made playing doubles with my friend Cherisse, 8-ball in the corner, diagonal the length of the table FTW.” Though Jones isn’t sure why Circle closed, he suspects gentrification had something to do with it. “My first reply,” he writes via email: “‘Because straight white people took over the neighborhood,’ but there may have been other circumstances.”
