Does anyone have any information on the Moulin Rouge that was located on Broadway in the early 1900s?

I got a boatload of hits putting this into google (www.google.com): "moulin rouge" "barbary coast" "san francisco"

Barbary Coast is what they used to refer to the Broadway strip-club area as.

The Moulin Rouge was located at 412 Broadway in the 1960s.

Good luck in your research.

My father would entertain there "after hours"....after his working at other nightclubs, for the tips. He said he made more there than his salaried gigs........
