Shuttered Bronx strip club could become church
Platinum Pleasures, the last remaining strip club in Hunts Point, has shut its doors — but in lieu of lap dances, a neighborhood pastor wants to turn the former jiggle joint into a place of worship.
Skyrocketing rents are helping to push a growing number of Bronx families into homelessness, stretching resources even thinner in the borough that already counts the highest number of occupants in the city shelter system.
Although the county is one of the nation's poorest, the paper reports, it's also the third-most dense, so developers see an opportunity for customers to make a lot of lower-priced purchases that still add up to big bucks.
Police are now searching for the suspect, described as about 5'7" to 5'8" tall and stocky in build. He was last seen wearing a multi-colored dress with a black hooded jacket and a red hooded coat.

Do you know how hard it is to find work when you are a laid off jiggle joint coat check? It's nearly impossible to begin with, and now that Spring beckons, the odds are even worse.
