George and Dragon, Shoreditch, Former gay bar building at Hackney Road, Shoreditch, United Kingdom
The George and Dragon occupied a corner position at 2-4 Hackney Road with architectural elements reflecting British construction traditions.
The establishment operated as a social gathering place in East London until August 2015, when increased rental costs forced its closure.
The venue supported contemporary arts through partnerships with the Institute of Contemporary Arts while serving the LGBTQ+ community in London.
Located at coordinates 51°31'47"N, 0°4'29"W, the building remained accessible through multiple public transportation routes in East London.
The interior featured an animated horse head decoration and a luminescent toilet that gained recognition among international visitors.
