The growth of prostitution in New York came about with the development of the city from the 1770s onwards. With the expansion of commercial activities and transport facilities in the nineteenth century, brothels flourished and turned into a common feature of metropolitan life. Highly concentrated in entertainment districts, commercial sex was by no means relegated to the margins of society. Landlords and managers of entertainment enterprises maximized their profits by allowing prostitutes to operate in their properties and businesses, while policemen, politicians, doctors and lawyers illegally shared the gains with madams and procurers.
