Kinda Interesting Things #124: The Berlin Wall in a Las Vegas Restroom If you go to the Main Street Station Casino in Downtown Las Vegas, make your way through all the slots on the main floor, and go to the Men’s restroom, you’ll find a piece of Cold War history tucked behind the urinals. This is the Berlin Wall in a Las Vegas Restroom. According to CNN, no one is quite sure how the Berlin Wall got here. The Boyd Gaming Corporation, which owns the casino, says that the Wall was already in the restroom when the company purchased the property in the 1990s from another casino that went bankrupt before opening. But it became one of the more popular tourist attractions at the Main Street Station Casino, and even underwent a renovation for the unusual amount of foot traffic this restroom gets. While the wall is in the men’s restroom, anyone can see it as long as they ask a security guard to escort them inside when it’s empty.

Kinda Interesting Things #126: The Swill-Milk Scandal In Central Park, there’s a Victorian Gothic building called The Dairy — a building that was meant to supply fresh and affordable milk for children. It was designed in the midst of a horrific health crisis that swept NYC in the mid-19th Century, perpetrated by distilleries trying to make profit off their waste, selling cheap, toxic milk to the unsuspecting masses. This is the story of the swill-milk scandal.

Kinda Interesting Things #125: The Rise and Fall of the Everard Baths At 28 West 28th Street in Chelsea, there once stood a bathhouse that was considered a safe haven for NYC’s gay community. Built in 1888, and repurposed as a bathhouse in 1860, the Everard Baths were a sanctuary for gay men, who had been frequenting the baths as early as World War I. While it thrived in popularity in its later years, it was considered a rundown establishment that was partially destroyed by a fire in 1977, and forced to close in 1986 due to the AIDS epidemic.
