no longer 24 karat pure

This place was OK, one of the limited choices for Western New Yorkers who could not or would not travel into Canada for the considerably better clubs there. When border crossing times often exceed sixty minutes, the WNY clubs at least offered some touchy feely time with average or below-average talent. But it seems it is no more. I tried to check it out again but found its signage removed and the building's exterior looking abandoned. There were no autos. Here's what the local newspaper reported recently: "The Gold on Route 5 in Hamburg, formerly 24KT Gold, and Mademoiselle Gentlemen’s Club on Aero Drive in Cheektowaga were both padlocked by property owners Sunday morning. Owners Mike and Irena Rudan said the club operators have not paid their rent in full for several years. Their ownership group, Rudan Holdings, also owns ... several strip clubs in Niagara Falls, Ont., including the Sundowner. Both properties are being listed for sale or lese. A security service has been hired and posted at each club to keep the club operators out."
