The Crow Bar was a DC gathering place for several years.  

It boasted, and rightly so, that it was DC's only "biker bar."  

The Crow Bar closed it's doors on June 27, 1998 and for a last hurrah had a block party.  

The streets were lined on both sides and all available sidewalk space was taken by bikes.  

It was a great party and featured everything you could want, fire trucks, beer, burn outs, wheelies, boobs, water balloon fights and even a real fight, sorta.  

A few months later the entire block was was gouged out.  

Nothing was left but a block sized hole in the ground for a new high rise office building. 

Rumors have been circulating of a new Crow Bar, but it is still just a rumor.  So sad ... :-(

Bikes were parked from corner to corner on the street and sidewalks
