George Chauncey's book ''Gay New York'' says that in 1925 Eve Addams opened a lesbian tearoom, ''Eve's Hangout,'' at No. 129 -- ''where the ladies prefer each other,'' according to a 1926 issue of The Greenwich Village Quill, a magazine. Chauncey says that her club was soon padlocked and Addams deported; she wound up in France. These buildings were originally built for Aaron Burr in 1829. Greenwich Village, New York City.
