San Francisco Trans Club Divas To Close Down
After 31 years of operation the San Francisco night club Divas, which has been a safe space for the transgender community, will be closing. The club, located at 1081 Post Street is due to close in just two days time on 31st March, following a final celebration.
Steve Berkley, the owner of both the club and the $3.8 million building, refused to speak in any depth on the closure, stating simply that he 'is looking to get out of the business'.
Alexis Miranda, the club manager, spoke to SF Gate about the closure. 'I've been the manager here for 31 years. It's depressing. It's the only transgender club in California, one of three in the country. We will find another place in the city. I'm working on it'.
