01 / The story of this place
Make time for these
Akron Health Club was a gay men's bathhouse on Detroit's East Side, run by the same owners as the nearby Todd's Sway Lounge bar. In 1979 it was one of five bathhouses serving gay men in the city. Like all the others except TNT, it closed by the mid-1980s as the AIDS crisis grew. Its street address is not recorded.
