of the gay places in WarmoesstraatIn Warmoesstraat, the gay leather scene made its appearance at the end of the 1950s with hotel Tiemersma, from where the famous leather bar Argos was opened in 1965. Also at this street was the travesty bar Oporto, which around the mid-1960s was known as Madame Arthur.
