Izzy Ort's Bar & Grille was a live music venue located at 25 Essex Street in Boston, Massachusetts ==History==
Izzy Ort's was open from 1935 to 1969. Originally it featured jazz musicians. In 1953, the owner renamed it the Golden Nugget and switched to hillbilly music, and later, rock. Musicians played on two floors: in the main room at street level, and in a room upstairs called El Tropico. Izzy Ort's was one of the first strip bars in what would later become known as Boston's Combat Zone. As a popular hangout for sailors, it was notorious among musicians for being a rough place to play. Like the Silver Dollar, it was patronized by both heterosexual and gay men. The bar was owned by Isadore "Izzy" Ort (1893 - 1975), a reputed former bootlegger from New York City who moved to Boston in the early thirties.〔 Ort, who left school after the fourth grade, was known in Boston as a colorful character who settled disputes among his patrons with a metal flashlight. He also had a reputation for generosity to servicemen. Anyone in the service who was away from home on Thanksgiving or Christmas would be served a free turkey dinner at Izzy Ort's. In the early 1940s, Ort bought space in the ''Boston Record-American'' for a regular column of his own, titled "I Wuz Thinkin." The column was accompanied by a picture of Ort wearing his characteristic fedora and smoking a cigar. 25 Essex Street later became part of Hong Lok House, an affordable housing project for Chinatown's elderly residents.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.gbcgac.org/history.php )〕
