A trusted source tells us that two of the clubs displaced by the new baseball stadium have been granted permission to move to Ward 5. Unfortunately for the gay community, the two clubs cater to straight male clientele by featuring female dancers. This is a terrible setback for the gay community. If this information is true, according to our count, there will be 12 straight nude dance clubs that are currently operating, or will be operating in the near future, in the District of Columbia (view list). Read more in the Washington City Paper online. There are no gay nude dance clubs remaining in the District.

To All of Our Devoted Friends...
We are working daily with the Government of the District of Columbia on a relocation site for the New Ziegfeld's & Secrets. This process has been hard fought but the end seems near.
We're trying to provide a new location for Ziegfeld's & Secrets that not only meets the requirements of our City's Government but more importantly a location that is SAFE and ACCESSIBLE for our Patrons.
We will keep you posted via this site on the future return of Your “New & Improved” ZIEGFELD'S & SECRETS.
Sincerely,
Ziegfeld's/Secrets
