On Friday, the “Dutch Window” — a male erotic massage demonstration at Chelsea’s Blue — was shut down by the police an hour and a half into the demonstration said a spokesman for Manworks.com.

Apparently, one cop car drove by without stopping so it seemed the window would be able to continue without interruption. Twenty minutes later, however, another officer approached the window and demanded the demonstration be shut down immediately.

Police claim the display “caused sidewalk obstruction” but officers on the scene could not cite exact law violations. No laws were broken — that we know of. But, even if the police officers were out of line, what can Manworks.com do about the situation? Probably not much.

    I was there, and the sidewalk was definitely clear. People who were watching were standing on the far side of the sidewalk (closer to the street), and people were able to pass through without a problem.

    It was much clearer than 8th ave b/t 49th and 50th with those damn City Sites bus tours (the double decker ones)!
