We approximate the look and feel of the original NPS sites and link out to original targets including existing NPS pages. Except: not the live NPS Stonewall site, for obvious reasons. In the case of the deleted theme study we have linked to the study where it now appears on @outhistory.bsky.social.

But we were interested in providing live access that would be picked up by search engines so that they might be found again by those wondering about queer Philadelphia.

As a small attempt to respond to this loss, we’ve recreated them on our own domain at William Way LGBT Community Center, until such time as they can be fully restored on the NPS website. To be sure, they are archived through the Internet Archive’s Wayback Machine.

Several sites related to LGBTQ history in Philadelphia were quietly removed from the NPS site back in February. While they don’t have the cachet of the Stonewall site or the scholarly importance of the theme study, it was nonetheless painful to see that they had disappeared from the live web.
