Natalie Keystone Brothel ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

About New York City

Repetition, yeah, brothels are wild, wild, wild! Underground, fancy, sad, strong. Cut off thought—anyway, they’re not just sex, they’re history, drama, like “Far From Heaven” but with more, uh, action. Is it ‘cos I is black? Nah, it’s ‘cos I get the layers, the mess. Love it, hate it, but can’t ignore it, innit? Peace out!

KEYSTONE, WV

One of the last remaining buildings that was once a brothel in Cinder Bottom. Feb. image by author. How would you like to carry groceries up these stairs?

I’m tellin’ ya—nothing about Keystone is too polished. It’s gritty beauty, just like that film—raw, poignant, bittersweet as hell. With my hands, I've felt the life in its bricks and parks. Every scar and crease on a client’s back reminds me: this town’s a testament to genuine, chaotic, imperfect life.
