Violet Elm Grove Brothel ❤️

About Houston

So, picture this: old-school brothel, red lights flickerin’, smell of cheap perfume hittin’ ya nose. I’m talkin’ 1800s vibes—did ya know back then, some madams ran empires? Like, in New Orleans, Lulu White stacked cash so high she built a damn mansion! Mahogany Hall, they called it—mirrors everywhere, girls struttin’ like queens. Blows my mind, man. Power in a world that’d spit on ‘em otherwise. Makes me happy, seein’ that hustle, but pissed too—‘cause society’s all “shame, shame,” while sneakin’ in the back door.

403 - Permission Denied

Several prominent British men were alleged to have engaged in sexual abuse and child grooming at the Guest House in the late s and early s.

The neighborhoods here are cooler than a polar bear’s toenails! The artsy district, known as Groove Alley, is filled with murals, hipster coffee spots, and that one little bookshop on Crescendo Lane that smells like old paper and dreams. Man, I once got mad at a noisy motor scooter in front of that bookshop, but hey, it's part of the charm, right? LOL, can you imagine!
