I love shots like that--they open your imagination more than anything else. Anything could be behind that door.

1956 - Jim Lowe - "Green Door"
Midnight, one more night without sleeping
Watching till the morning comes creeping
Green door, what's that secret you're keeping?
There's an old piano
And they play it hot behind the green door
Don't know what they're doing
But they laugh a lot behind the green door
Wish they'd let me in so I could find out
What's behind the green door
Knocked once, tried to tell them I'd been there
Door slammed, hospitality's thin there
Wonder just what's going on in there
Saw an eyeball peeping through a smoky cloud behind the green door
When I said "Joe sent me"
Someone laughed out loud behind the green door
All I want to do is join the happy crowd behind the green door
Midnight, one more night without sleeping
Watching till the morning comes creeping
Green door, what's that secret you're keeping?
Green door, what's that secret you're keeping?
Green door
Midnight, one more night without sleeping
Watching till the morning comes creeping
Green door, what's that secret you're keeping?

Wish they'd let me in so I could find out

Knocked once, tried to tell them I'd been there
Door slammed, hospitality's thin there

As a New Orleans native I must say that you captured this door very well Jim.

The pot culture picked up the term, ‘420’, as a code of sorts. It’s a term used nation-wide.

Thanks to all of the UHHers who looked at my Green Door photo. Also it has been fun to read the varied comments about what is behind it. When I took this photo in 1997 I suspect the only thing behind it was an empty rundown building. Most recently 420 Bourbon Street housed a "gentleman's" club (strip joint) called Lipstixx which is now closed.
