Remembering Gulliver’s Nightclub Fire

On June 30th, 1974 in the early hours of the morning, a fire erupted at Gulliver’s Nightclub, resulting in the devastating loss of 24 young people and the injury of 32 others. The club, situated right on the border of Port Chester and Greenwich, had a bustling and lively atmosphere that boasted a restaurant, bar, lounge, and discoteque with a sunken dancefloor– the epitome of the lively nature of the 70’s. On the night of June 30th, 1974, a band called the Creation with lead singer Paul Caravello was performing, however, the music was interrupted when smoke began to infiltrate the discotheque, which was on the lower level of the building. Many hurried to evacuate the building before it was too late but, unfortunately, the smoke was overbearing for the 24 of those who perished, all of them reportedly suffering from asphyxiation.
